MailKite Server is now open source.

By Gabe LG

The mail-server half of MailKite — the Haraka MX edge, the SMTP submission edge, the IMAP server, a zero-dependency SQLite backend and a web console — is now on GitHub under AGPL-3.0: github.com/mailkite/server Every edge is a stateless protocol head sitting behind one small HTTP contract, so the bundled SQLite backend and MailKite Cloud are just two implementations of the same thing — the edges and the console run unchanged against either. Self-host the whole stack on a $5 VPS, or keep storage on your box and set SMARTHOST=cloud to send through our deliverability. Five releases in, it takes real internet mail on :25, serves IMAP to Thunderbird and Apple Mail, and dispatches signed inbound webhooks with a durable retry queue. Live demo box: server.mailkite.dev Full write-up on why we split it out and how the contract works: https://mailkite.dev/blog/mailkite-server-open-source
