cyrus-imap-server's Introduction

Cyrus IMAP + OpenLDAP + Postfix server

A Cyrus IMAP server based on OpenSUSE Leap that uses OpenLDAP for authentication and Postfix for SMTP.

The scripts use buildah to create the container images. The containers are deployed via podman using Kubernetes pod YAML.

The Cyrus IMAP server is built from sources. The ./configure invocation is in cyrus-build.sh.

./configure \
--prefix=/usr \
--libexecdir=/usr/lib/cyrus-imapd \
--enable-autocreate \
--enable-idled \
--with-ldap \
--with-sqlite \
--without-snmp

Everything depends on base.sh. ldap.sh and postfix.sh have no other dependencies. cyrus-build.sh depends on base-build.sh. cyrus.sh copies the cyrus-imapd installation from cyrus-build.

The configuration is not present, however, the configuration files and directories are itemized in the YAML. 😉

Create the images

sh base.sh
sh base-build.sh
sh cyrus-build.sh
sh cyrus.sh
sh ldap.sh
sh postfix.sh

Create the configuration

Run the pod

podman kube play pod.yaml

Verify functioning

Note the Cyrus IMAP and Postfix master processes and OpenLDAP slapd:
