This is a small collections of scripts to manage a simple email server based on Postfix, Dovecot and MySQL. For more information on how to setup this configuration, please read the tutorial written for DigitalOcean by Nestor de Haro, available here:

These scripts are compabible with Python 2.7.3. I don't know if they work on Python 3, but you can try. :)

You need to install a python module called texttable. To install it just run:

sudo easy_install texttable

First you'll need to edit the configuration file config.ini according with your configuration. My configuration is as follows:

[database]
host = localhost
user = usermail
password = PASSWORD_HERE
name = servermail

[disk]
vhostdir = /var/mail/vhosts
uid = 5000
gid = 5000

For more information, please read the tutorial referred above.

Now you will be able to run the scripts as follows:

sudo ./addUser.py -e email -p password
sudo ./removeUser.py -e email
./changePassword.py -e email -p newpassword
./listUsers.py

sudo ./addDomain.py -d domain
sudo ./removeDomain.py -d domain
./listDomains.py

./addAlias.py -s source -d destination
./removeAlias.py -s source
./listAliases.py

Some scripts need root permissions in order to create or delete the mailboxes on disk.
