We’re excited to announce the release of Stalwart v0.12, a significant milestone that evolves Stalwart from a powerful mail server into a complete, integrated communication and collaboration platform. This release delivers one of the most anticipated features from our community: native support for calendars, contacts, and file storage—all built directly into the server, with no need for third-party integrations.

Can I use IMAP only for archiving my old emails?

[–] aksdb@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yes. You can simply not expose SMTP at all and just use the IMAP/JMAP part. Unless you need also JMAP, I am not sure it brings you a lot to the table you wouldn't also get from a good old dovecot. IMO the big advantage of Stalwart is the all-in-one package it delivers plus the good defaults. It also shines when you want a multi node deployment. For a single node IMAP only it might not be the best choice, in my opinion. But it would work, if you want to.

All my need is imap for old email. Jmap +others are not xtras that i dont need. I’ll look at dovecot. Thanks
