# 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** 💙🔥❄️
