Hi folks,
I received a call from one of our fine MUUG friends in regards to my
mail server.
With the caveat that I am nowhere near an expert, I am happy to share my
knowledge.
I'll give a brief description of what I have below:
Nextcloud 18 integrated with e-mail (Postfix / Dovecot / Rspamd):
- File syncing/sharing capabilities of Nextcloud. It works like Dropbox
used to back in the early 2010s. It has a lot of functionality, but also
no frills and simple.
- E-mail functionality is tied to Nextcloud, so users can log in to NC
and get their files, e-mails, calendar, tasks and so on. Lots of addons
available as well!
- E-mail/Calendar/Tasks/Contacts can also be set up on PCs using an
e-mail client (I use Thunderbird) and phones (I use Android). Should
work on Outlook/Apple as well.
- Nextcloud Talk for instant messaging, Notes for... well... notes.
- What it requires for hardware depends on the number of users, but as
someone who has most of its computing equipment straight out of the
recycle pile, I can tell you it does not need anything fancy. The only
thing that's out of the ordinary is that you'll need a static IP and a
business internet package (because of the whole Port 25 blocking thing
we discussed here a while ago). I got a nice deal with Shaw, and I am
overall happy with it. I was able to order a business plan as myself
without issues.
If anyone else here wants to have a chat about that, let me know so we
can all talk about it together. Our tentative time would be tomorrow
around 7PM. I asked him to call me, but if anyone else wants to
participate we can find a way to work it out so we can all talk!
Kind regards,
--
