Emailwiz is a set of shell scripts that makes it easy to configure an email server on Linux. This tutorial will guide you through the steps required to install Emailwiz on NixOS Latest.
Before we can install Emailwiz, we need to ensure that the following prerequisites are met:
First, we need to clone the Emailwiz repository from GitHub. Open a terminal on your NixOS server and run the following command:
git clone https://github.com/LukeSmithxyz/emailwiz
After the repository has been cloned, navigate to the emailwiz
directory by running the following command:
cd emailwiz
Once you are in the emailwiz
directory, you can run the setup script which will install all the necessary dependencies and configure your email server. To run the setup script, use the following command:
sudo sh emailwiz.sh
The setup script will prompt you for some information, such as the domain name you want to use for your email server, and the username and password for the email administrator. Follow the prompts carefully, and provide the necessary information as required.
Once the setup script has completed, you can test the email server by sending an email to an external address from the command line. Use the following command to send a test email:
echo "This is a test email" | mail -s "Test Email" user@example.com
If you receive the test email successfully, your email server is up and running. You can now configure your email clients to use the server for sending and receiving emails.
