App descriptions are read by people deciding whether they want the app,
not by people maintaining it. Several were spending their last clause on
facts the reader cannot act on and would not recognise — and in Stoat's
case actively talking the app down: "Heavy (16 containers) and does not
federate" is a maintainer's note, not a description.
Eight rewritten, all the same fault:
stoat "Heavy (16 containers) and does not federate", and LiveKit
named as though the reader would know what it is
vikunja "Runs as a single container on SQLite, with no database sidecar"
stalwart "in a single container"
gitea "written in Go", plus "self-hosted Git service" twice in one line
vaultwarden "an alternative implementation of the Bitwarden server API
written in Rust" — says what it is to a developer, not what it
does for you
speedtest "implemented in Javascript"
adguard "resolving blocked domains to a local blackhole address"
matrix "Installs Synapse plus the Element web client"
Deliberately kept, because they change whether the app suits you rather
than merely describing how it is built: Rocket.Chat's free-edition user
cap, Mattermost's unlimited users, Navidrome's Subsonic compatibility
(it tells you which phone apps will work), Stalwart's protocol list, and
Gluetun's provider count.

# private — mail stays on your own network. Stalwart still gives you
|
|
# mailboxes, IMAP, calendars and contacts, and mail between local
|
|
# accounts works normally. It just does not exchange mail with the
|
|
# internet, so there is no MX, no reverse DNS, no port 25 and no
|
|
# deliverability to worry about. Port 25 is not published at all;
|
|
# the client ports stay bound to the host but are never opened
|
|
# through the firewall.
|
|
#
|
|
# public — a real internet mail server. Needs outbound AND inbound port 25,
|
|
# a matching reverse DNS record set by your VPS provider, and the
|
|
# DNS records the installer prints. Be aware that deliverability is
|
|
# a reputation game as much as a configuration one: a brand-new IP
|
|
# is distrusted by large providers for weeks regardless of how
|
|
# correct your setup is. That part no installer can fix for you.
|
|
#
|
|
# auto — decide at install time: public if Traefik is installed (which in
|
|
# practice means you have a domain pointed here), private if not.
|
|
# The resolved value is written back here, so this reads as a real
|
|
# answer afterwards rather than staying 'auto'.

# AUTOMATIC SETUP

# =============================================================================
|
|
# Out of the box Stalwart opens a five-screen setup wizard on first sign-in and
|
|
# waits for a human. LibrePortal already knows the answers that matter — the
|
|
# hostname and the domain — so the installer fills the wizard in instead, and
|
|
# the user's first sight of Stalwart is a configured mail server.
|
|
#
|
|
# CLI_VERSION = the version of the Stalwart CLI used to apply that setup.
|
|
# Pinned, not ':latest', for the same reason the server image is: this writes
|
|
# configuration, so an unattended jump to a new CLI is not something to
|
|
# discover during an install. The CLI is a separate upstream project from the
|
|
# server and is NOT included in the server image, which is why it is a
|
|
# container of its own rather than something bundled.
|
|
CFG_STALWART_CLI_VERSION=1.0.12
|
|
#
|
|
# FIRST_MAILBOX = local part of one real mailbox created during setup.
|
|
# Setup leaves you with admin@<domain>, which is an administrator account
|
|
# rather than somewhere to read mail. 'postmaster' is the default for a
|
|
# concrete reason: the generated zone file points DMARC and TLS-RPT reports at
|
|
# postmaster@<domain>, and if nothing creates it those reports bounce.
|
|
# Set empty to skip creating it.
|
|
CFG_STALWART_FIRST_MAILBOX=postmaster
|
|
CFG_STALWART_FIRST_MAILBOX_PASSWORD_1=RANDOMIZEDPASSWORD2
|
|
#
|
|
# DNS_PROVIDER = 'manual', or a provider name to let Stalwart publish DNS itself.
|
|
# On 'manual' the installer prints the full record set — including the real
|
|
# DKIM public keys — for you to paste at your registrar.
|
|
# Given a provider, Stalwart writes MX, SPF, DKIM, DMARC, MTA-STS, TLS-RPT,
|
|
# SRV and CAA into the zone through the provider's API and keeps them in sync.
|
|
# That also makes DKIM key rotation safe to leave switched on, since the server
|
|
# republishes the records itself — hand-managed DKIM keys are, in practice,
|
|
# keys nobody ever rotates.
|
|
#
|
|
# Wired up here: Cloudflare, DigitalOcean, DeSEC (token-only providers).
|
|
# Route 53 and Google Cloud DNS need more than a token — set those up in the
|
|
# admin console instead.
|
|
#
|
|
# The trade: the token is stored in the mail server's database and can write to
|
|
# your zone, so compromising this box means compromising your DNS. Scope the
|
|
# token to this one zone if your provider allows it.
