Claude caf67d324b fix: close all completed tasks and add missing Mailcow issue
PROBLEM:
6 tasks marked ' COMPLETE' were still OPEN in Gitea.
Task #20 (Mailcow) was complete in tasks.md but had no Gitea issue.

FIXED:
- Closed Issues #32, #33, #34, #37, #44, #68 (all completed tasks)
- Created Issue #74 for Task #20 (Mailcow Email Server)
- Added status/done label to all completed issues
- Closed duplicate Issues #25, #26

RESULT:
All completed tasks now properly closed and in Done column.
Total: 9 completed task issues
