## Signup
|
||
|
|
||
|
Currently, bobamail is in private beta for people that I know. Keep an eye on
|
||
|
the [blog](/blog) and/or its [RSS feed](/blog/index.xml) for updates.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Mailcow
|
||
|
|
||
|
bobamail runs [Mailcow](https://mailcow.email/), which is a full mail server
|
||
|
suite that runs on open source software. The following sections will go over
|
||
|
some of the main features.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Spam and Malware Scanning
|
||
|
|
||
|
Mailcow uses [Rspamd](https://www.rspamd.com/) for spam filtering, virus
|
||
|
detection (via [ClamAV](https://www.clamav.net/)), and DKIM signing.
|
||
|
|
||
|
#### Greylisting
|
||
|
|
||
|
Emails that could possibly be spam (7+ points) are
|
||
|
[greylisted](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greylisting_(email)) (otherwise known
|
||
|
as a soft reject). This means that at first, the message is temporarily
|
||
|
rejected. Legitimate email servers will keep track of this and try again
|
||
|
(usually after a few minutes). If this happens, then the email will eventually
|
||
|
be allowed through. If the email got 8 or more points, then it will also be sent
|
||
|
to the Junk folder instead of Inbox.
|
||
|
|
||
|
#### Learning
|
||
|
|
||
|
Rspamd will automatically learn an email as spam (or ham) if you move it into
|
||
|
your Junk folder from any other folder except Trash. It will also automatically
|
||
|
learn using emails that get an extremely high or extremely low score.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### bobamail ui
|
||
|
|
||
|
This is the web interface provided by Mailcow for configuring various things
|
||
|
about your account. This is separate from the webmail client provided by SOGo,
|
||
|
which allows you to view your emails.
|
||
|
|
||
|
#### Temporary Aliases
|
||
|
|
||
|
You can create temporary aliases (otherwise known as spam aliases) in the
|
||
|
[bobamail ui](https://mail.boba.best/). These aliases can be created for time
|
||
|
periods varying from one hour to four weeks. Temporary aliases can be created
|
||
|
and deleted at any time.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Webmail Client
|
||
|
|
||
|
Mailcow provides a webmail interface using [SOGo](https://www.sogo.nu/). It
|
||
|
provides an easy-to-use web-based mail client in case you don't want to use one
|
||
|
on your computer. This is separate from [bobamail ui](https://mail.boba.best/),
|
||
|
which is Mailcow's UI, for changing various settings.
