Snappymail as replacement for rainloop

[pzystorm]

Hi all,
rainloop is pretty old and outdated. A fork of it is called snappymail.
I'd like to know if someone has any ideas if it would be easy to change that?

f.ex. just change the corresponding docker image path in the docker-compose.yml?

  rainloop:
    image: mailserver2/rainloop:${RAINLOOP_DOCKER_TAG}

Thanks.

Great idea! I think I'm the only one on the team who uses rainloop, so I'm keen to have a look. Will be on vacation for the next few weeks though.

I have been using snappymail for a long while.
Some plugins didn't get ported, but on the config side it is pretty much the same.

  snappymail:
    image: djmaze/snappymail:v2.38.2
    container_name: snappymail
    restart: ${RESTART_MODE}
    labels:
      - "traefik.enable=true"
      - "traefik.docker.network=http_network"
      - "traefik.http.routers.snappymail.entrypoints=websecure"
      - "traefik.http.routers.snappymail.rule=Host(`mail.${DOMAIN}`)"
      - "traefik.http.routers.snappymail.service=snappymail"
      - "traefik.http.routers.snappymail.tls=true"
      - "traefik.http.routers.snappymail.tls.certresolver=letsencrypt"
      - "traefik.http.routers.snappymail.tls.domains[0].main=mail.${DOMAIN}"
      - "traefik.http.routers.snappymail.tls.options=default"
      - "traefik.http.services.snappymail.loadbalancer.server.port=8888"
      - "traefik.http.services.snappymail.loadbalancer.server.scheme=http"
    volumes:
      - ${VOLUMES_ROOT_PATH}/snappymail:/var/lib/snappymail
    links:
      - mariadbcontacts
    depends_on:
      - mailserver
      - mariadb
      - mariadbcontacts
    networks:
      - mail_network
      - http_network

I think we can reasonably declare Snappymail dead by now.

hello,

yes, it is, but there are new forks, by comunity : the-djmaze/snappymail#1911

• https://github.com/kimusan/Tachyon
• https://github.com/oe79/NextSnapMail (focused on integration with nextcloud)

worth a change, as it all has old rainloop as base

[AndrewSav]

True, but it seems they come and go. Let's give it a year or two and see what sticks...
