With over 15,000 GitHub stars accumulated since its February 2025 launch, BillionMail delivers the rare combination of a production mail transfer agent and a full email marketing suite in a single self-hosted package — eliminating the monthly per-subscriber fees charged by Mailchimp, SendGrid, and similar platforms. The Go-based architecture bundles Postfix for SMTP transmission, Dovecot for IMAP and POP3 mailbox access, Rspamd for intelligent spam filtering and greylisting, and RoundCube for browser-based webmail, all orchestrated through Docker Compose with PostgreSQL for persistent storage and Redis for queue management and caching. The marketing engine supports unlimited subscriber lists with tag-based segmentation, scheduled campaign sends, A/B subject line testing, and both HTML and drag-and-drop visual template editors for crafting responsive emails without coding. Real-time analytics dashboards track sent volume, deliverability rate, open rate, click-through rate, and bounce reasons, while the platform provides step-by-step DNS record configuration wizards for SPF, DKIM, and DMARC to maximize inbox placement. A transactional email API exposes REST endpoints for single and batch sending, enabling integration with CRM systems, e-commerce platforms, and custom applications. Auto-provisioned free SSL certificates, Fail2ban brute-force protection, and privacy-first architecture with zero third-party tracking ensure secure operation. The platform installs in under eight minutes via a single shell script and supports SMTP on port 25, SMTPS on 465, submission on 587, IMAP on 143/993, and POP3 on 110/995. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPLv3 licensed.

Mail for your own domain stays on your own server with mailez, a self-hosted stack that delivers over SMTP, IMAP, and POP3 and adds a webmail, calendar, contacts, file storage, and an admin console, all started with a single command. Readers get a draggable three-pane webmail that updates itself over a push channel, merges replies into conversations, folds quoted history, and searches with from:, to:, has:attachment, and date terms. Keyboard shortcuts, a command palette, snooze, scheduled send, undo for bulk moves, and quick reply keep daily mail fast, and the interface installs as an offline-capable app with light and dark themes. Privacy-minded users add PGP signing and encryption, two-factor login, and remote-image blocking, and write server-side rules in a Sieve editor. Calendar, contacts, and Drive sit beside mail, with ICS subscriptions, vCard import, CardDAV and CalDAV sync, and share links. Phones and desktop clients configure themselves through autoconfig. Administrators manage domains, mailboxes, aliases, relays, and external mailbox fetching in one console, generate DKIM keys with a click, and follow a DNS wizard and a health page that verify MX, SPF, DMARC, DKIM, blocklists, and MTA-STS. Audit logs and role-based access keep shared servers accountable. The free community edition runs on a single node, while archiving, DLP, LDAP, ActiveSync, and AI features belong to the paid enterprise edition. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.

Stalwart replaces the traditional Postfix + Dovecot + SpamAssassin + calendar-server stack with one Rust binary that speaks every standard mail and collaboration protocol natively. JMAP, IMAP4rev2, POP3, SMTP, CalDAV, CardDAV, and WebDAV all run inside the same process — no glue scripts, no sidecar daemons, no version conflicts between components. The pluggable storage architecture lets operators choose RocksDB for single-node deployments, FoundationDB for distributed clusters, PostgreSQL, MySQL/MariaDB, or SQLite for the data store, S3/MinIO/Azure Blob for message blobs, and Elasticsearch or Meilisearch for full-text search, with Redis or the internal engine backing rate limiters and session state. Security features include S/MIME and OpenPGP encryption at rest, automated DKIM key generation with DNS publication, DANE and MTA-STS transport security, automatic ACME TLS provisioning, granular ACLs, rate limiting, and IP banning. The browser-based admin console manages accounts, domains, groups, mailing lists, SMTP queues, DMARC/TLS-RPT/ARF reports, and every configuration object without touching a config file, while the self-service portal at /account gives end users password reset and encryption key management. Multi-tenant support with per-tenant quotas enables hosting-platform deployments, and coordinator-less clustering via Zenoh or NATS scales horizontally by adding nodes. Deploy via Docker or the standalone binary. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL v3 licensed.

Mail-in-a-Box turns a single Ubuntu server into a fully functional email system with one setup command, installing and configuring Postfix for SMTP, Dovecot for IMAP, Roundcube for webmail, and Z-Push for Exchange ActiveSync push notifications in an automated sequence that would take days to replicate manually. The DNS server auto-configures the full suite of email authentication records: SPF, DKIM, DMARC, DNSSEC with DANE TLSA, MTA-STS, and SSHFP. Getting all of these right is what separates email that lands in inboxes from email that lands in spam, and most manual installations never achieve the complete set. Nextcloud integration adds CardDAV contact sync and CalDAV calendar sharing across devices. Let's Encrypt certificates provision and renew automatically for every hosted domain. The web control panel manages users, aliases, custom DNS records, and automated backups, protected by TOTP two-factor authentication. Daily health checks verify that services run correctly, ports remain open, TLS certificates stay valid, and DNS records resolve properly, alerting you before delivery problems develop. Multiple domains and users operate from one installation with internationalized domain name support. Built-in HTTPS static site hosting uses the TLS infrastructure already in place. Runs on a dedicated RepoCloud VPS with guaranteed resources, root SSH, and browser serial console for complete email sovereignty. CC0 public domain licensed.

Transforming your Stalwart Mail Server into an all-in-one private communication hub, Bulwark Webmail delivers fast web-based email, collaborative calendars, shared contacts, and cloud files in a single unified interface. Users can manage multiple email accounts from an integrated inbox with conversational message threading, nested organizational tags, scheduled delivery, and instant full-text search across thousands of archived messages. The rich text composer provides markdown shortcuts, inline image embedding, reusable canned response templates, and automated draft synchronization. Team members can coordinate schedules across day, week, month, and agenda calendar views with drag-to-reschedule adjustments, interactive iMIP meeting invitations, and external CalDAV calendar subscriptions. The integrated address book organizes individual contacts into custom groups with full vCard import and export support, while the files module lets users browse server storage, preview incoming attachments, and upload documents directly through the browser. Built-in security safeguards enforce multi-factor authentication, cryptographic S/MIME signatures, client-side encryption at rest, and automated HTML luminance remapping to keep dark emails legible.

Your entire mail system can live in one self-hosted suite with OpenMail, from SMTP, IMAP, and POP3 delivery to three-pane webmail and the admin console that runs it. Standard clients such as Thunderbird, Apple Mail, and phone apps connect over SMTP ports 25, 587, and 465, IMAP ports 143 and 993, and POP3 ports 110 and 995, while people use the three-pane webmail with folder tree, conversation list, and reading pane at port 3000. You read, write, reply, forward, batch-organize, drag messages between folders, filter stars, search sender, subject, and body text, and follow conversations threaded automatically by their References headers. The rich-text composer autocompletes recipients, accepts dragged attachments and pasted screenshots, saves drafts every 12 seconds, sends on a schedule, and inserts reusable templates imported from HTML or generated with AI. Any OpenAI-compatible endpoint can draft replies, translate mail into twelve languages, and summarize messages, with provider keys encrypted on your server. Administrators get real-time mail statistics with 14-day send and receive trends, user quotas and bans, multi-domain aliases and catch-all addresses, outgoing queue visibility, and audit logs. Adding a domain generates DKIM keys and copy-ready SPF, DKIM, and DMARC DNS records with one-click checks, while rule-based spam scoring, TOTP two-factor authentication, and role-based permissions protect accounts in ten interface languages including right-to-left Arabic and Urdu.
