Timo Sirainen originated Dovecot and first released it in July 2002. Dovecot developers primarily aim to produce a lightweight, fast and easy-to-set-up open-source mailserver.\n\nDovecot is an excellent choice for both small and large installations. It's fast, simple to set up, requires no special administration and it uses very little memory.\n\n\u003e [dovecot.org](https://dovecot.org)\n\n![Dovecot Logo](https://dovecot.org/dovecot.gif)\n\n\n\n\n## How to use this image\n\nTo run Dovecot with default configuration simply do: \n```bash\ndocker run -d -p 143:143 instrumentisto/dovecot\n```\n\nTo see default configuration just run:\n```bash\ndocker run --rm instrumentisto/dovecot doveconf\n```\n\nTo reconfigure Dovecot add/replace drop-in files in `/etc/dovecot/conf.d/` directory inside container, or just specify your own `/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf` file:\n```bash\ndocker run -d -p 143:143 -v /my/dovecot.cnf:/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf instrumentisto/dovecot\n```\n\n\n\n\n## Image versions\n\n\n### `X`\n\nLatest version of `X` Dovecot major version.\n\n\n### `X.Y`\n\nLatest version of `X.Y` Dovecot minor version.\n\n\n### `X.Y.Z`\n\nConcrete `X.Y.Z` version of Dovecot with latest updates applied.\n\n\n### `X.Y.Z.P`\n\nConcrete `X.Y.Z` version of Dovecot with `P` update applied.\n\n\n### `alpine`\n\nThis image is based on the popular [Alpine Linux project][1], available in [the alpine official image][2]. Alpine Linux is much smaller than most distribution base images (~5MB), and thus leads to much slimmer images in general.\n\nThis variant is highly recommended when final image size being as small as possible is desired. The main caveat to note is that it does use [musl libc][4] instead of [glibc and friends][5], so certain software might run into issues depending on the depth of their libc requirements. However, most software doesn't have an issue with this, so this variant is usually a very safe choice. See [this Hacker News comment thread][6] for more discussion of the issues that might arise and some pro/con comparisons of using Alpine-based images.\n\n\n\n\n## License\n\nDovecot itself is licensed under [LGPLv2.1][93] and [MIT][94] licenses (see [details][92]).\n\nDovecot Docker image is licensed under [MIT license][91].\n\n\n\n\n## Issues\n\nWe can't notice comments in the DockerHub so don't use them for reporting issue or asking question.\n\nIf you have any problems with or questions about this image, please contact us through a [GitHub issue][3].\n\n\n\n\n\n[1]: http://alpinelinux.org\n[2]: https://hub.docker.com/_/alpine\n[3]: https://github.com/instrumentisto/dovecot-docker-image/issues\n[4]: http://www.musl-libc.org\n[5]: http://www.etalabs.net/compare_libcs.html\n[6]: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10782897\n[10]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dovecot_(software)\n[91]: https://github.com/instrumentisto/dovecot-docker-image/blob/master/LICENSE.md\n[92]: https://www.dovecot.org/doc/COPYING\n[93]: https://www.dovecot.org/doc/COPYING.LGPL\n[94]: https://www.dovecot.org/doc/COPYING.MIT\n[101]: https://github.com/instrumentisto/dovecot-docker-image/blob/master/debian/Dockerfile\n[102]: https://github.com/instrumentisto/dovecot-docker-image/blob/master/alpine/Dockerfile\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Finstrumentisto%2Fdovecot-docker-image","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Finstrumentisto%2Fdovecot-docker-image","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Finstrumentisto%2Fdovecot-docker-image/lists"}
