gimoh/davmail repository overview

⁠davmail-docker

Davmail⁠ running inside docker⁠.

Do you trust Java? Me either. Use this docker container to run davmail locally and connect to your Exchange email provider.

⁠Usage

The following usage instructions assumes Docker >= 0.5.3 and your running user in the docker system group (to prevent needed sudo usage).

Create your davmail config file, you can find a sample on the davmail site⁠. Ports here need to match the ports in the Dockerfile, or you will need to open your own ports during the docker run.

$ mkdir ~/.davmail
$ vi ~/.davmail/davmail.properties #enter your davmail config here

You can either clone this and build your own image, or use my image created from this Dockerfile.

To use the image:

$ docker pull gimoh/davmail
$ # exposing a system port is deprecated and must be done at the command
$ # line now as of 0.6.6
$ docker run -d -p 127.0.0.1:1025:1025 -p <ip>:<hostport>:<containerport> -v ~/.davmail:/etc/davmail gimoh/davmail

To tweak and build your own:

$ docker build .
$ docker run -d <imageid>
