Topic: Install iRedMail with pre-existing/custom nginx install?

Is it possible to install iRedMail over a pre-existing custom Nginx install? I see that iRedMail would like to install Nginx or Apache for you, and I am assuming if you already have nginx-full installed it would skip that step. But I have my own compiled version of Nginx. How can I bypass the server install section?

Re: Install iRedMail with pre-existing/custom nginx install?

As mentioned in iRedMail installation guide:

IMPORTANT WARNING: iRedMail is designed to be deployed on a FRESH server system, which means your server does NOT have mail related components installed, e.g. MySQL, OpenLDAP, Postfix, Dovecot, Amavisd, etc. iRedMail will install and configure them for you automatically. Otherwise it may override your existing files/configurations althought it will backup files before modifing, and it may not be working as expected.

Please try iRedMail on a fresh/clean server OS.
