Does anybody here self-host a mail-by-proxy solution? If so, I'm interested to hear about your setup, experiences and any drawbacks. I have a custom domain and a hosted email service with a very small amount of storage. I'd like to host something locally so that I can keep all my email without stressing about the space. I also want to be able to use email on my phone and computer and a web interface for tablets or while traveling. Finally, I'd like emails that I send to be stored locally so I can search it. Does anybody else already do something like this? I can forge my own path, but oftentimes, somebody else is already doing it better.

Just configured your mail clients pop/IMAP server as your fetchmail target and SMTP as your hosted service.

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
