AWS customers who prefer to host their own email solutions over using fully managed services like Amazon WorkMail can face challenges running open source mail servers.
In a blog post, Amazon Web Services details how it is using AWS CloudFormation templates to integrate Mail-in-a-Box, offering functions such as email, webmail, calendar, contacts and file sharing.
Amazon S3 is used for offloading users' data and storing backups. The system is designed for small- to medium-sized operations that want a fully featured open source mail server on AWS, with automated setup and high resiliency but minimal complexity and cost.
Several other open-source projects aim at simplifying the setup of a mail server, such as Docker Mailserver, Mailu, Modoboa, iRedMail, etc.
