Stalwart JMAP is a Java-based email protocol that allows for easy communication between email clients and email servers. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the installation process of Stalwart JMAP on Debian latest.
Before you begin, make sure that you have the following:
First, you need to download the Stalwart JMAP package from the official website using the following command:
sudo wget https://stalw.art/jmap/stalwart-jmap-latest.tar.gz
Next, extract the downloaded package using the following command:
sudo tar xzf stalwart-jmap-latest.tar.gz
This will create a folder named stalwart-jmap-VERSION.
You need to edit the JMAP configuration file jmap.properties located in the conf folder of the extracted package. Use your favorite text editor to open the file, for example:
sudo nano stalwart-jmap-VERSION/conf/jmap.properties
In this file, you can change various settings such as the port number, the maximum number of connections, and the storage location. Modify the settings as per your requirements.
Once you have configured the JMAP server, you can start it using the following command:
sudo stalwart-jmap-VERSION/bin/stalwart-jmap
If the server starts successfully, you will see the following message:
JMAP server started and is ready to serve requests on port PORT_NUMBER
Now that the server is up and running, you can test it by connecting to it using a suitable email client, such as Thunderbird or Outlook. You will need to enter the server address and port, along with your email credentials.
In this tutorial, you learned how to install Stalwart JMAP on Debian latest. Once you have installed and configured the server, you can use it to connect with email clients that support the JMAP protocol.
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!
