Anonymize headers
Save as data/conf/postfix/mailcow_anonymize_headers.pcre:
/^\s*Received:[^\)]+\)\s+\(Authenticated sender:(.+)/
REPLACE Received: from localhost (localhost [127.0.0.1]) (Authenticated sender:$1
/^\s*User-Agent/ IGNORE
/^\s*X-Enigmail/ IGNORE
/^\s*X-Mailer/ IGNORE
/^\s*X-Originating-IP/ IGNORE
/^\s*X-Forward/ IGNORE
Add this to data/conf/postfix/main.cf:
smtp_header_checks = pcre:/opt/postfix/conf/mailcow_anonymize_headers.pcre
Backup and restore maildir (simple tar file)
Backup
This line backups the vmail directory to a file backup_vmail.tar.gz in the mailcow root directory:
cd /path/to/mailcow-dockerized
source mailcow.conf
DATE=$(date +"%Y%m%d_%H%M%S")
docker run --rm -it -v $(docker inspect --format '{{ range .Mounts }}{{ if eq .Destination "/var/vmail" }}{{ .Name }}{{ end }}{{ end }}' $(docker-compose ps -q dovecot-mailcow)):/vmail -v ${PWD}:/backup debian:jessie tar cvfz /backup/backup_vmail.tar.gz /vmail
You can change the path by adjusting ${PWD} (which equals to the current directory) to any path you have write-access to.
Set the filename backup_vmail.tar.gz to any custom name, but leave the path as it is. Example: [...] tar cvfz /backup/my_own_filename_.tar.gz
Restore
cd /path/to/mailcow-dockerized
source mailcow.conf
DATE=$(date +"%Y%m%d_%H%M%S")
docker run --rm -it -v $(docker inspect --format '{{ range .Mounts }}{{ if eq .Destination "/var/vmail" }}{{ .Name }}{{ end }}{{ end }}' $(docker-compose ps -q dovecot-mailcow)):/vmail -v ${PWD}:/backup debian:jessie tar xvfz /backup/backup_vmail.tar.gz
Docker Compose Bash completion
For the tab-tab... :-)
curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/docker/compose/$(docker-compose version --short)/contrib/completion/bash/docker-compose -o /etc/bash_completion.d/docker-compose
Black and Whitelist
Edit a domain as (domain) administrator to add an item to the filter table.
Beware that a mailbox user can login to mailcow and override a domain policy filter item.
Change default language
Change data/conf/sogo/sogo.conf and replace "English" by your prefered language.
Create a file data/web/inc/vars.local.inc.php and add "DEFAULT_LANG" with either "en", "pt", "de" or "nl":
<?php
$DEFAULT_LANG = "de";
Change UI theme
mailcow uses Bootstrap, a HTML, CSS, and JS framework.
Open or create the file data/web/inc/vars.local.inc.php and change DEFAULT_THEME to either cerulean, cosmo, custom, cyborg, darkly, flatly, journal, paper, readable, sandstone, simplex, slate, spacelab, superhero, united or yeti (see https://bootswatch.com/):
<?php
$DEFAULT_THEME = "paper";
Customize Dockerfiles
Make your changes in data/Dockerfiles/$service and build the image locally:
docker build data/Dockerfiles/service -t andryyy/mailcow-dockerized:$service
Now auto-recreate modified containers:
docker-compose up -d
Disable sender addresses verification
This option is not best-practice and should only be implemented when there is no other option available to archive whatever you are trying to do.
Simply create a file data/conf/postfix/check_sender_access and enter the following content:
user-to-allow-everything@example.com OK
Open data/conf/postfix/main.cf and find smtpd_sender_restrictions. Prepend check_sasl_access hash:/opt/postfix/conf/check_sender_access like this:
smtpd_sender_restrictions = check_sasl_access hash:/opt/postfix/conf/check_sender_access reject_authenticated_sender [...]
Run postmap on check_sasl_access:
docker-compose exec postfix-mailcow postmap /opt/postfix/conf/check_sasl_access
Restart the Postfix container.
Install Roundcube
Download Roundcube 1.3.x (beta at the time of Feb 2017) to the web htdocs directory and extract it (here rc/):
cd data/web/rc
wget -O - https://github.com/roundcube/roundcubemail/releases/download/1.3-beta/roundcubemail-1.3-beta-complete.tar.gz | tar xfvz -
# Change folder name
mv roundcubemail-1.3* rc
# Change permissions
chown -R root: rc/
Create a file data/web/rc/config/config.inc.php with the following content.
Change the des_key parameter to a random value. It is used to temporarily store your IMAP password.
<?php
error_reporting(0);
if (!file_exists('/tmp/mime.types')) {
file_put_contents("/tmp/mime.types", fopen("http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/httpd/trunk/docs/conf/mime.types", 'r'));
}
$config = array();
$config['db_dsnw'] = 'mysql://' . getenv('DBUSER') . ':' . getenv('DBPASS') . '@mysql/' . getenv('DBNAME');

$config['enable_installer'] = false;
$config['smtp_conn_options'] = array(
'ssl' => array('verify_peer' => false, 'verify_peer_name' => false, 'allow_self_signed' => true)
);
Point your browser to https://myserver/rc/installer and follow the instructions.
Initialize the database and leave the installer.
Delete the directory data/web/rc/installer after a successful installation!
Enable change password function in Roundcube
Open data/web/rc/config.inc.php and enable the password plugin:
...
$config['plugins'] = array(
'archive',
'password',
);
...
Open data/web/rc/plugins/password/password.php, search for case 'ssha': and add above:
case 'ssha256':
$salt = rcube_utils::random_bytes(8);
$crypted = base64_encode( hash('sha256', $password . $salt, TRUE ) . $salt );
$prefix = '{SSHA256}';
break;
Open data/web/rc/plugins/password/config.inc.php and change the following parameters (or add them at the bottom of that file):
$config['password_driver'] = 'sql';
$config['password_algorithm'] = 'ssha256';
$config['password_algorithm_prefix'] = '{SSHA256}';
$config['password_query'] = "UPDATE mailbox SET password = %P WHERE username = %u";
MySQL
Connect to the MySQL database
source mailcow.conf
docker-compose exec mysql-mailcow mysql -u${DBUSER} -p${DBPASS} ${DBNAME}
Backup the database
cd /path/to/mailcow-dockerized
source mailcow.conf
DATE=$(date +"%Y%m%d_%H%M%S")
docker-compose exec mysql-mailcow mysqldump --default-character-set=utf8mb4 -u${DBUSER} -p${DBPASS} ${DBNAME} > backup_${DBNAME}_${DATE}.sql
Restore the database
cd /path/to/mailcow-dockerized
source mailcow.conf
docker-compose exec mysql-mailcow mysql -u${DBUSER} -p${DBPASS} ${DBNAME} < backup_file.sql
Read logs
You can use docker-compose logs $service-name for all containers.
Run docker-compose logs for all logs at once.
Follow the log output by running docker-compose with logs -f.
Redirect port 80 to 443
Since February the 28th 2017 mailcow does come with port 80 and 443 enabled.
Open mailcow.conf and set HTTP_BIND=0.0.0.0.
Open data/conf/nginx/site.conf and add a new "catch-all" site at the top of that file:
server {
listen 80 default_server;
server_name _;
return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
}
Restart the stack, changed containers will be updated:
docker-compose up -d
Redis
Connect to redis key store
docker-compose exec redis-mailcow redis-cli
Remove persistent data
- Remove volume
mysql-vol-1to remove all MySQL data. - Remove volume
redis-vol-1to remove all Redis data. - Remove volume
vmail-vol-1to remove all contents of/var/vmailmounted todovecot-mailcow. - Remove volume
dkim-vol-1to remove all DKIM keys. - Remove volume
rspamd-vol-1to remove all Rspamd data.
Running docker-compose down -v will destroy all mailcow: dockerized volumes and delete any related containers.
Reset admin password
Reset mailcow admin to admin:moohoo:
- Drop admin table
source mailcow.conf
docker-compose exec mysql-mailcow mysql -u${DBUSER} -p${DBPASS} ${DBNAME} -e "DROP TABLE admin;"
- Open mailcow UI to auto-init the db
Rspamd
Learn spam and ham*
Rspamd learns mail as spam or ham when you move a message in or out of the junk folder to any mailbox besides trash. This is archived by using the Dovecot plugin "antispam" and a simple parser script.
Rspamd also auto-learns mail when a high or low score is detected (see https://rspamd.com/doc/configuration/statistic.html#autolearning)
The bayes statistics are written to Redis as keys BAYES_HAM and BAYES_SPAM.
You can also use Rspamd's web ui to learn ham and/or spam.
CLI tools
docker-compose exec rspamd-mailcow rspamc --help
docker-compose exec rspamd-mailcow rspamadm --help

Tagging
Mailbox users can tag their mail address like in me+facebook@example.org and choose between to setups to handle this tag:
- Move this message to a subfolder "facebook" (will be created lower case if not existing)
- Prepend the tag to the subject: "[facebook] Subject"
Two-factor authentication
So far two methods for TFA are impelemented. Both work with the fantastic Yubikey.
While Yubi OTP needs an active internet connection and an API ID and key, U2F will work with any FIDO U2F USB key out of the box, but can only be used when mailcow is accessed over HTTPS.
Both methods support mulitple YubiKeys.
As administrator you are able to temporary disable a domain adminsitrators TFA login until they successfully logged in.
The key used to login will be displayed in green, while other keys remain grey.
Yubi OTP
The Yubi API ID and Key will be checked against the Yubico Cloud API. When setting up TFA you will be asked for your personal API account for this key. The API ID, API key and the first 12 characters (your YubiKeys ID in modhex) are stored in the MySQL table as secret.
U2F
Only Google Chrome (+derivates) and Opera support U2F authentication to this day natively. For Firefox you will need to install the "U2F Support Add-on" as provided on mozilla.org. U2F works without an internet connection.
Why Bind?
For DNS blacklist lookups and DNSSEC.
Most systems use either a public or a local caching DNS resolver. That's a very bad idea when it comes to filter spam using DNS-based blackhole lists (DNSBL) or similar technics. Most if not all providers apply a rate limit based on the DNS resolver that is used to query their service. Using a public resolver like Googles 4x8, OpenDNS or any other shared DNS resolver like your ISPs will hit that limit very soon.
