I need to run my own email server for some of my domains, because the providers that I usually use don’t support them (they use Unicode characters, and not everyone supports that yet). I have a small VPS that I run a few Docker containers on, and I’m wanting to try and run an email server on it as well. What containers are good for a low-hassle email setup? I don’t need a mailbox webui (ex: roundcube), but it would be nice to have a UI for management. I do need multi-domain support, however.
EDIT: For anyone wondering, I decided to go with Mailu. Stalwart didn’t play will with internationalized domains (although it was the only server to support EAI/SMTPUTF8), and Mailcow would have been a bit more difficult for me to change to bind mounts and reconfigure Docker networking with.


What’s the resource usage like? I’ve looked into mailcow before but the recommended system specs are too expensive to make it worth it on a VPS.
Seems really low. I run it on a docker LXC with Nextcloud and bunch of other stuff, on 8 cores of an ancient dual Xeon Dell. I never seem to have to deal with latency on it.
