Hi,

I know it's probably a very long shot, but is there any way to have Anonaddy running along mailcow?

I guess the main difficulty would be to forward incoming (received & submitted through) emails directly from mailcow to Anonaddy on a local non-25/587 ports since mailcow is the SMTP ports listener. Could be enough?

Thanks.

Hi,

I haven't ever used mailcow so I'm not familiar with it at all.

AnonAddy uses Postfix (master.cf) to pipe received emails through to the Laravel application where they can then be forwarded on to the correct recipient.

AnonAddy uses virtual_transport in main.cf

virtual_transport = anonaddy:

Mailcow appears to use this as virtual_transport = lmtp:inet:dovecot:24 so that would probably cause conflicts.

I'm currently writing a more detailed guide on self-hosting so hopefully that will help others to find solutions to questions like this.
