Running mail server at home (Mox on Raspberry Pi)
03-15, 11:30–11:55 (Europe/Prague), Track I
Language: English

In this talk, We explore the journey of running a self-hosted mail server on a Raspberry Pi using Mox. We will discuss why home-based email hosting can be a compelling alternative to cloud-based providers—from greater control over your data to enhanced privacy. We will then walk through the technical steps to set up and secure a Mox-based mail server.


Email is a cornerstone of our digital lives, yet most of us rely on third-party services without fully considering issues such as data privacy and long-term ownership. For those seeking a more self-reliant approach, this talk offers a practical guide to setting up a mail server at home using Mox on a Raspberry Pi.

We will make an overview of why hosting your own email can be both empowering and cost-effective. From there, we dive into hardware requirements, network considerations, and key concepts like DNS, DKIM, SPF, and DMARC for secure, standards-compliant email delivery.
