Self-hosting an e-mail server is notoriously difficult. While privacy is a top concern for many individuals and businesses, the complexities of self-hosting a mail server often outweigh the benefits, leading many to choose to sacrifice some privacy and pay a third-party provider to manage their email instead. One of the key challenges of self-hosting an email server is the outdated and complex nature of most available open-source mail server software.
Stalwart Labs' mission is to help modernize, democratize and promote decentralization of email by creating an open-source mail server in Rust that is simple to run but at the same time extremely secure, robust and focused on privacy.
All components and libraries released so far have been written without any external funding. If you find the project useful you can help by becoming a sponsor. Thank you!
