==== REQUIRED BASIC INFO OF YOUR IREDMAIL SERVER ====

Installed in a Rocky CT under Proxmox 7.4.
Seems all working fine.
I also mounted /var/mail/mail1 using a Bind Mount Point without problem.
Any advice/ counterindication / limit for this configuration?

Thanks, P.

Re: iRedMail in Proxmox Container

no, as long as all required ports are forwarded, the outside ip has proper ptr, and you are not behind a cloudflare proxy it should be fine

only problem could be if the mount point becomes unavailable

I suppose those requirements are general, not related to an installation into a CT.

It's a local folder in the same host, so, I suppose, this isn't a weak
(used MP in many CT for many years whitout problems).
In my experience CTs give sometimes problems with permissions, SQL and some apps like elasticsearch that require specifics configurations.
This is what I am asking experiences from other people.

Thanks, Paolo
