How to install it on Kvm VPS? No docker or vagrant.

Thanks

+1 Realy hard to install... Vagrant or docker is a big waste of resources for a mail server...

-1 Docker is super efficient, way better than supporting multiple flavors of Linux or OS.

My clients need to send just a few hundred emails a day total from their WordPress sites. Would love to host cuttlefish on one of my servers alongside my clients' websites, but instead the instructions talk about an 8GB server, ansible, capistrano, vagrant, and docker! A ridiculous waste of resources for just a few hundred emails/day. This is not efficent at all. It's not that hard to provide .deb and .rpm files which covers almost all flavors of linux, and I would gladly figure out how to manually get things working from that. As is, this project looks to be way too difficult for me to want to start investing my time trying to figure out how to get it running.

@mrme44 The README should probably be updated but it appears that you can run the entire thing with one command (docker compose up -d).
