docker-dovecot is a fork of docker-dovecot-getmail to only include dovecot
docker-dovecot-getmail is a Docker image based on Debian implementing a private email gateway with dovecot and getmail for gathering emails from multiple accounts on a private server (IMAP), but using a public email infrastructure for sending (SMTP).
It is a Docker container realizing a similar architecture to:
+-----------+ +-----------+ +--------------+
| ISP | | DOCKER | | LAPTOP |
| | | | +-->|--------------|
| +-------+ | push/delete | +-------+ | push/sync | | MAIL CLIENT +---+
| | IMAPS +----------------->| IMAPS +<------------+ +--------------+ |

Open source project:
- github: http://github.com/gw0/docker-dovecot-getmail/
- technology: debian, dovecot, getmail
- docker hub: https://hub.docker.com/r/gw000/dovecot-getmail/
Requirements:
/home: mounted users directories (Maildirin fs layout)/etc/ssl/private: mounted SSL/TLS certificates (dovecot.crt,dovecot.key)
Do not forget to place your SSL certificates as /srv/mail/ssl/dovecot.crt and /srv/mail/ssl/dovecot.key. SSL is required!
And finally start it with docker:
$ docker run -d -v /srv/mail/home:/home -v /srv:/vol -v /srv/mail/ssl:/etc/ssl/private:ro -p 143 -p 993 -p 4190 --name mail gw000/dovecot-getmailOr use docker-compose (check out docker-compose.example.yml).
Users are created automatically. If password in /vol/config/${USER}.pass the password in file will be used else default password (replaceMeNow) ia set on first start. To reset user passwords (of a running container):
$ docker exec -it mail passwd userIf you encounter any bugs or have feature requests, please file them in the issue tracker or even develop it yourself and submit a pull request over GitHub.
