			<description><![CDATA[<p>You need:</p><p>Create one Amazon ec2 free-tier or nano VPS instance running with Iredmail. <a href="http://jeffreifman.com/how-to-install-your-own-private-e-mail-server-in-the-amazon-cloud-aws/">http://jeffreifman.com/how-to-install-y … cloud-aws/</a><br />(I skipped the part about mailgun and used Amazon&#039;s own SES for outgoing mail. Also FYI mailgun does not forward incoming email to your server, only email addresses, see here: <a href="http://serverfault.com/questions/839437/receiving-email-to-ec2-mailserver-from-mailgun-ses/839869#839869">http://serverfault.com/questions/839437 … 869#839869</a> And that is why I opted to use mxguarddog to filter and route incoming mail to the mail server.)</p><p>Disable all antivirus and spam scanning<br /><a href="http://www.iredmail.org/docs/completely.disable.amavisd.clamav.spamassassin.html">http://www.iredmail.org/docs/completely … assin.html</a><br /><a href="http://www.iredmail.org/forum/topic12494-iredmail-support-solvedhow-to-uninstall-virus-and-spam.html">http://www.iredmail.org/forum/topic1249 … -spam.html</a><br />Disable greylisting<br /><a href="http://www.iredmail.org/docs/manage.iredapd.html#how-to-disable-greylisting-completely">http://www.iredmail.org/docs/manage.ire … completely</a></p><p>Use mxguarddog to route all incoming mail to your mail server. (Make sure to make firewall rules only allowing smtpd mxguarddog IP addresses over port 25) <a href="https://mxguarddog.com/faq.ip_list/">https://mxguarddog.com/faq.ip_list/</a> (use the built in &quot;security groups&quot; of amazon, don&#039;t modify the built-in iredmail rules. ec2 security groups will be the first line of defense.)</p><p>Use Amazon SES as a relay to send all your email with postfix. <a href="http://docs.aws.amazon.com/ses/latest/DeveloperGuide/postfix.html">http://docs.aws.amazon.com/ses/latest/D … stfix.html</a></p><p>In effect, I have a scaleable mail server where I can provide my clients email hosting with unlimited space (costing me .10 / GB) for storage space using an amazon EC2 VPS instance (couple bucks a month).</p><p>The mail server is efficient and operates on about 200MB/RAM by outsourcing virus and spam scanning to Mxguarddog (receiving) and Amazon SES (outgoing), (as well as receiving &quot;reputation&quot; for going through an established mail send point), and finally all is passing DKIM and SPF verification. And don&#039;t forget to use free letsencrypt for SSL <a href="http://www.iredmail.org/forum/topic12500-iredmail-support-easy-lets-encrypt-guide-for-ubuntu-1604-iredmail-server-with-nginx.html">http://www.iredmail.org/forum/topic1250 … nginx.html</a></p><p>I consider the project a success, but I do wish I could find a more &quot;enterprise&quot; grade mail routing/filtering solution for incoming mail than mxguarddog.</p>]]></description>
