In this tutorial, we will guide you on how to install Mailu on your Windows 10 machine.
Before we install Mailu, ensure that your Windows 10 machine meets the following prerequisites:
Follow these steps to install Mailu on Windows 10:
Open the Command Prompt as an Administrator. To do this, right-click on the Start button and select "Command Prompt (Admin)".
In the Command Prompt, navigate to the directory where you want to install Mailu.
Clone the Mailu project to your machine by running the following command:

Once the virtual machine is up and running, you can access the Mailu web interface at https://localhost:8443/
.
When accessing the web interface for the first time, your browser may warn you about a security certificate. Ignore this warning and proceed to the website.
On the Mailu web interface, create a new user account with admin privileges.

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!
