Requirement

Installation

  1. Build image

    $ sudo docker pull catatnight/postfix

Usage

  1. Create postfix container with smtp authentication

            -e maildomain=mail.example.com -e smtp_user=user:pwd \
            --name postfix -d catatnight/postfix
    # Set multiple user credentials: -e smtp_user=user1:pwd1,user2:pwd2,...,userN:pwdN
  2. Enable OpenDKIM: save your domain key .private in /path/to/domainkeys

    $ sudo docker run -p 25:25 \
            -e maildomain=mail.example.com -e smtp_user=user:pwd \
            -v /path/to/domainkeys:/etc/opendkim/domainkeys \
            --name postfix -d catatnight/postfix

    $ sudo docker run -p 587:587 \
            -e maildomain=mail.example.com -e smtp_user=user:pwd \
            -v /path/to/certs:/etc/postfix/certs \
