# Mailu with Let's Encrypt Using Docker Compose



📙 The complete installation guide is available on my [website](https://www.heyvaldemar.com/install-mailu-using-docker-compose/).



❗ Change variables in the `.env` to meet your requirements.



To generate a 128-bit security key for the `SECRET_KEY` variable, use the following OpenSSL command:



`openssl rand -hex 16`



💡 Note that the `.env` file should be in the same directory as `mailu-traefik-letsencrypt-docker-compose.yml`.



Set up the following DNS and firewall configurations for our Mailu email server on yourdomain.com:



## DNS Records

### A Records

- `mailu.yourdomain.com` → `[Server IP]`

- `admin.mailu.yourdomain.com` → `[Server IP]`

- `webmail.mailu.yourdomain.com` → `[Server IP]`

- `webdav.mailu.yourdomain.com` → `[Server IP]`

- `traefik.mailu.yourdomain.com` → `[Server IP]`



### MX Record

- `yourdomain.com MX` → `mailu.yourdomain.com (Priority: 10)`



### SPF Record

- `TXT yourdomain.com` → `v=spf1 a mx ~all`



### DKIM Record

- `TXT mail._domainkey.yourdomain.com` → `(DKIM Key)`



### DMARC Record

- `TXT _dmarc.yourdomain.com` → `v=DMARC1; p=none; rua=mailto:[email protected]`



### PTR Record

- `[Server IP]` → `mailu.yourdomain.com`



### Firewall Ports to Open

- **SMTP:** 25, 465, 587

- **IMAP/POP3:** 143, 993, 110, 995

- **Sieve:** 4190

- **Web Traffic:** 80, 443



Replace `[Server IP]` and `(DKIM Key)` with the appropriate values for your server.



Create networks for your services before deploying the configuration using the commands:



`docker network create traefik-network`



Deploy Mailu using Docker Compose:



`docker compose -f mailu-traefik-letsencrypt-docker-compose.yml -p mailu up -d`



# Administrator Account



Set password for administrator account. Replace `PASSWORD` with a strong, secure password:



`docker compose -p mailu exec admin flask mailu admin admin yourdomain.com PASSWORD`
