**UNMAINTAINED, do not use**

Møil is an open source administration user interface for database backed mail
servers (postfix/dovecot). It brings the handy possibility of managing the
database with migrations and a lot of beautiful CRUD.

The code is available from [GitHub](https://github.com/nning/moeil.git).

Features
--------

* Tested with postfix and dovecot.
* Track database schema with rails migrations.
* Database agnostic (tested with SQLite3, PostgreSQL and MySQL/MariaDB).
* Managing domains, aliases and mailboxes.
* Permissions and Roles for Mailboxes to e.g. manage a certain domain.
* Responsive web user interface.
* Change log for review and reverting changes.
* Search (optionally based on SQL or elasticsearch).

Installation
------------

Just deploy like any other current rails project. Configuration examples for
postfix and dovecot are to be found in the doc directory of the code repository.

### Local testing

It is assumed, elasticsearch is installed and running. If you want to use SQL
based search, set `elasticsearch: false` in `config/settings.yml`.

git clone git://github.com/nning/moeil.git
cd moeil
ln -s database.yml.example config/database.yml
gem install bundler
bundle
rake secret:replace
rake db:migrate
rake db:seed
rails s

### OpenShift

**(Note, that the OpenShift guide does currently not contain instructions for
elasticsearch.)**

First steps happen in your local terminal. So this is for creating an OpenShift
Ruby 1.9 application with a PostgreSQL 9.2 cartridge:

rhc app create -a moeil -t ruby-1.9
rhc cartridge add -a moeil -c postgresql-9.2

A git repository is created which holds your application code. We add the Møil
repository as a remote and pull the code to the application repository:

cd moeil
git remote add upstream -m master https://github.com/nning/moeil.git
git pull -s recursive -X theirs upstream master

Then we push the current state and deploy the application (this will take some
time):

git push origin master

To create a first domain and a mailbox, we have to SSH into the OpenShift
application and start a rails console:

rhc ssh moeil
cd app-root/repo
RAILS_DB=postgresql RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rails c

Then, inside the rails console, we are creating a domain and an associated
mailbox:

d = Domain.create!(name: 'example.org')
m = Mailbox.new(username: 'alice', password: 'foobar', admin: true)
m.domain = d
m.save!

Now you can login to your Møil deployment on OpenShift.
