iRedMail installs packages from official Ubuntu apt repositories, it's safe to upgrade packages with "apt update && apt upgrade", but no guarantee if you use any third-party apt repositories.

Re: Update nginx safe?

I will not update because the official repository still have 1.18 in the 22.04 ubuntu version. It has to be when I move the server to a Ubuntu 24.04 that has Nginx 1.24 in repository. I am after the simple way to block direct ip in https calls. There is a new way to do it simple in Nginx 1.19 and newer

Thanks for the answer and thanks for a great product
