# Mailcow Email Server on NC1
**Status:** Blocked - Awaiting NC1 cleanup + Frostwall
**Priority:** Tier 2 - Major Infrastructure
**Time:** 2-3 hours
**Location:** NC1 Charlotte (216.239.104.130)
**Last Updated:** 2026-02-16
## Overview
Deploy Mailcow email server on NC1 for professional @firefrostgaming.com addresses. Self-hosted, full control, eliminates Plesk accessibility nightmare.
## Why NC1
- $0/month vs $10/month VPS ($120/year saved)
- Geographic redundancy (Email NC, AI TX)
- Clean IP confirmed by Breezehost
- Monster hardware (32-core EPYC)
- 46GB storage available after cleanup
- GRE tunnel protects email IP from game traffic
## Resources
- RAM: 6GB Mailcow / 251GB total = 2.4%
- Storage: 30GB Mailcow / 46GB free = 65% used
- CPU: Massive overkill
## Deployment Steps
1. Deploy Mailcow via Docker (Postfix, Dovecot, SOGo, Rspamd, ClamAV)
2. Configure DNS (MX, SPF, DKIM, DMARC)
3. Create 10-15 initial addresses
4. Test deliverability (Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo)
5. Check spam scores/blacklists
6. Migrate off Plesk
## Success Criteria
- ✅ Professional email operational
- ✅ Self-hosted, full control
- ✅ Plesk eliminated
- ✅ $120/year saved
**Blocks:** NC1 cleanup ✅, Frostwall Protocol
**Fire + Frost + Foundation** 💙🔥❄️
