BlueMind is a software solution that provides users with an email and collaborative messaging platform. It can be installed on Linux systems, but you can also install BlueMind on Windows 10 with a few additional steps. Below is a step-by-step guide on how to install BlueMind on Windows 10.
Before you start the installation process, make sure you have the following prerequisites:
Go to the official BlueMind website (https://www.bluemind.net/en/) and download the Windows installer package.
If you haven’t installed Java on your Windows PC, download and install Java 8 or higher (64-bit version) from the official Oracle website (https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/javase-downloads.html).
BlueMind requires a PostgreSQL server to store its data. Download and install the PostgreSQL server on your Windows PC. You can download PostgreSQL from the official website (https://www.postgresql.org/download/windows/).
During the installation process, you’ll need to provide a password for the default PostgreSQL user, “postgres”. Make sure to remember this password, as you’ll need it later.
Double-click on the BlueMind installer package that you downloaded in Step 1.
Follow the on-screen instructions to install BlueMind on your Windows PC.
During the installation process, you’ll be prompted to provide the PostgreSQL password that you set during Step 3. Make sure to enter this password correctly.
Once the installation process is complete, you can launch BlueMind from the Windows Start menu.
Installing BlueMind on Windows 10 requires a few additional steps than on a Linux system, but it’s still relatively straightforward. By following these simple steps, you can set up your own email and collaborative messaging platform on your Windows 10 computer.
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!
