Chasquid is a SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) server that is designed to be easy to configure and deploy. In this tutorial, we'll walk you through the process of installing Chasquid on Alpine Linux Latest.
Before we begin, make sure you have the following:
The first step is to install the required dependencies for building Chasquid. To do that, run the following command:
sudo apk add gnupg go make git
Next, we'll download and install Chasquid. Follow these steps:
Download the latest version of Chasquid from the official website:
curl -LO https://github.com/albertito/chasquid/archive/refs/tags/v1.11.tar.gz
Verify the downloaded file:
curl -LO https://github.com/albertito/chasquid/releases/download/v1.11/1.11.tar.gz.sig
curl -sSL https://keybase.io/albertito/pgp_keys.asc | gpg --import
gpg --verify 1.11.tar.gz.sig 1.11.tar.gz
This should output "Good signature" if everything went well.
Extract the archive:
tar -zxvf v1.11.tar.gz
Change into the extracted directory:
cd chasquid-1.11
Build and install Chasquid:
make
sudo make install
Once the installation is complete, verify it by running the following command:
chasquid --version
This should output the version number of Chasquid.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Chasquid on Alpine Linux Latest. You can now configure and use it as your SMTP server.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
