It is useful to be able to access you email from a -web browser because it allows you to easily access your email from any -device with a web browser without any additional setup. - -If you set up -[Nextcloud](/nextcloud) -then you do not need to install Rainloop because Nextcloud comes with a -webmail client. However, if all you want is a webmail client and you do -not need all of the extra things that Nextcloud provides, Rainloop would -be the better choice out of the two since it is less bloated and simpler -to install. - -## Instructions - -First we will install the required packages for Rainloop with the -following command: - -```sh -apt-get install php7.4 php7.4-common php7.4-curl php7.4-xml php7.4-fpm php7.4-json php7.4-dev php7.4-mysql unzip -y -``` - -Then we will download the community version of Rainloop, unzip it into -an appropriate directory and fix all of the file permissions: - -```sh -curl -L "https://www.rainloop.net/repository/webmail/rainloop-latest.zip" -o "rainloop.zip" -unzip rainloop.zip -d /var/www/mail -chown -R www-data: /var/www/mail -``` - -We have installed Rainloop itself, but now we need Nginx to serve the -client. We do that by adding the following text into the file -`/etc/nginx/sites-available/mail` (you can replace the bold text with -whatever is appropriate for your server). - -```nginx -server { - - listen 80; - - server_name mail.example.org ; - root /var/www/mail; - - index index.php; - - access_log /var/log/nginx/rainloop_access.log; - error_log /var/log/nginx/rainloop_error.log; - - location / { - try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$query_string; - } - - location ~ \.php$ { - fastcgi_index index.php; - fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(.*)$; - fastcgi_keep_conn on; - fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php/php7.4-fpm.sock; - include /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params; - fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name; - } - location ~ /\.ht { - deny all; - } - - location ^~ /data { - deny all; - } -} -``` - -Then enable the site by linking it to the sites-enabled directory: - -```sh -ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/mail /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/ -``` - -Reload nginx: - -```sh -systemctl reload nginx -``` - -Finally get certifications if you are using a new subdomain: - -```sh -certbot --nginx -``` - -After that go to `mail.example.org/?admin` and login with the default -username and password: admin, 12345. Now you are in the admin panel and -the first thing you do should be to change the adminsitrator password by -looking in the security tab on the left. - -{{< img alt="rainloop" src="/pix/rainloop-1.png" >}} - -After securing the admin account you can go to domains and add your own -email address. - -{{< img alt="rainloop" src="/pix/rainloop-2.png" >}} - -Finally, go to `mail.example.org` and login with your email address and -password. - -## Contribution - -[Deniz Telci](https://deniz.telci.org/) - XMR: -`4AcKbpTUc3QX2zHYdh9HZwJAQyexdybFhF1WhXTFhxAcV9jgzB6kroqGZDgeW3rQqXEMYJioYo61kaLBqstwecty9Bjbr4v` |
