Move the CMDEPLOY_STAGES=install execution into the Dockerfile these operations baked into the image layer. On container start, only configure and activate stages run by default. Users can override with CMDEPLOY_STAGES="install,configure,activate" to force a full reinstall without rebuilding the image. Also fixes CERTS_MONITORING_TIMEOUT typo in docker-compose.yaml (was "$CERTS MONITORING TIMEOUT"), and replaces the docker-commit workaround in docs with CMDEPLOY_STAGES documentation.
Chatmail relays for end-to-end encrypted email
Chatmail relay servers are interoperable Mail Transport Agents (MTAs) designed for:
-
Zero State: no private data or metadata collected, messages are auto-deleted, low disk usage
-
Instant/Realtime: sub-second message delivery, realtime P2P streaming, privacy-preserving Push Notifications for Apple, Google, and Huawei;
-
Security Enforcement: only strict TLS, DKIM and OpenPGP with minimized metadata accepted
-
Reliable Federation and Decentralization: No spam or IP reputation checks, federating depends on established IETF standards and protocols.
This repository contains everything needed to setup a ready-to-use chatmail relay on an ssh-reachable host. For getting started and more information please refer to the web version of this repositories' documentation at
