Stalwart Mail Server continues its tradition of constant innovation and advancement with the release of version 0.3.2. Address rewriting has always been a highly requested feature, and we've delivered in a big way. The 0.3.2 update introduces sender and recipient address rewriting using both regular expressions and Sieve scripts. This means you now have the ability to manipulate and manage email addresses like never before, providing unparalleled flexibility in routing your emails.

But that's not all. We've also included support for subaddressing and catch-all addresses using regular expressions. This feature allows you to handle email addressing in more unique and sophisticated ways, aiding in spam management, and simplifying email routing to non-standard addresses.

Lastly, we've introduced dynamic variables in configuration rules. This allows you to use variables within settings that are resolved at runtime, further enhancing the flexibility and control you have over your mail server configuration.

This release is all about providing you with more control, adaptability, and management options for your email. We're incredibly excited to see how you will leverage these features to optimize your mail server. Upgrade to Stalwart Mail Server 0.3.2 and revolutionize the way you manage email addresses.

E-mail filtering is a crucial part of any modern mail server and, for this reason, we're excited to announce the addition of Milter support to the Stalwart Mail Server. This update, driven by user feedback, allows the integration of both new and old Milter filters, supporting versions 2 and 6, which expands the server's capabilities in inspecting, filtering, or modifying emails during processing.

A milter, or "mail filter", is an extension to mail servers based on the Sendmail protocol. Milters allow third-party software to access mail messages as they are being processed in order to filter, modify, or annotate them. By using Milters, a mail server can utilize a variety of functionalities such as spam filtering, virus scanning, and other types of mail processing, beyond what is built into the mail server itself. Milters operate at the SMTP protocol level, which means they have access to both the SMTP envelope and the message contents.

This new feature not only responds to our users' needs but also ensures that Stalwart can work seamlessly with any existing setup. Whether you are seeking better spam protection, antivirus measures, or implementing specific processing rules, milter filtering has got you covered.

Learn more about milter filters and how to set them up in our documentation.

We're thrilled to announce the release of Stalwart Mail Server, our biggest leap forward yet. This version combines the powerful capabilities of Stalwart JMAP, Stalwart IMAP, and Stalwart SMTP servers into one easy-to-install binary, offering you a unified, highly efficient mail server solution.

Here are some of the exciting new features:

  • LDAP and SQL authentication support was added, giving you more flexibility and options to integrate Stalwart with your existing infrastructure.
  • We've incorporated support for disk quotas to provide better control over your storage resources.
  • Subaddressing and catch-all addresses are now supported. These features make the email handling process more flexible and efficient.
  • Storage options have been extended with the inclusion of S3-compatible storage. Now you can store your emails and blobs using reliable and scalable solutions such as MinIO, Amazon S3, or Google Cloud Storage.
  • In response to user feedback, we've replaced RocksDB with SQLite. Our community told us they wanted an open, trusted database technology with easier access to their data, and we listened!
  • For those operating in distributed environments, you can now opt for the FoundationDB backend, supporting millions of users without sacrificing performance.
  • Stalwart IMAP is no longer an IMAP-to-JMAP proxy, instead, it now provides direct access to the message store. This significant change has brought a tremendous improvement in performance, reducing latency, and making your mail operations faster than ever.
  • We've also made significant strides in enhancing performance by rewriting the JMAP protocol parser and the storage API.
  • Lastly, we've made the decision to switch from Actix Web Server to Hyper. This change has allowed us to reduce memory footprint and increase performance, resulting in a more optimized and efficient mail server.

With Stalwart Mail Server, we're delivering a more unified, powerful, and efficient solution that meets your growing email infrastructure needs. We're excited to see how you'll leverage these new capabilities, and as always, we're here to support you every step of the way!
