Also removed the FAQ inline heading link for Rancher. It's not a relevant link (as the question already expects knowledge of Rancher), and breaks out of the bg colour heading style due to the HTML generation logic from mkdocs.

Advanced | Email Gathering with Fetchmail |
To enable the fetchmail service to retrieve e-mails set the environment variable ENABLE_FETCHMAIL
to 1
. Your docker-compose.yml
file should look like following snippet:
environment:
- ENABLE_FETCHMAIL=1
- FETCHMAIL_POLL=300
Generate a file called fetchmail.cf
and place it in the config
folder. Your docker-mailserver
folder should look like this example:
├── config
│ ├── dovecot.cf
│ ├── fetchmail.cf
│ ├── postfix-accounts.cf
│ └── postfix-virtual.cf
├── docker-compose.yml
└── README.md
Configuration
A detailed description of the configuration options can be found in the online version of the manual page.
Example IMAP Configuration
poll 'imap.example.com' proto imap
user 'username'
pass 'secret'
is 'user1@domain.tld'
ssl
Example POP3 Configuration
poll 'pop3.example.com' proto pop3
user 'username'
pass 'secret'
is 'user2@domain.tld'
ssl
!!! caution
Don’t forget the last line: eg: is 'user1@domain.tld'
. After is
you have to specify one email address from the configuration file config/postfix-accounts.cf
.
More details how to configure fetchmail can be found in the fetchmail man page in the chapter “The run control file”.
Polling Interval
By default the fetchmail service searches every 5 minutes for new mails on your external mail accounts. You can override this default value by changing the ENV variable FETCHMAIL_POLL
:
environment:
- FETCHMAIL_POLL=60
You must specify a numeric argument which is a polling interval in seconds. The example above polls every minute for new mails.
Debugging
To debug your fetchmail.cf
configuration run this command:
./setup.sh debug fetchmail
For more informations about the configuration script setup.sh
read the corresponding docs.
Here a sample output of ./setup.sh debug fetchmail
:
