[HELP] How to install the frappe mail?

1

I installed this

now i can access my frappe mail via

myip.com/mail

but not receiving or cant send any email.

how to setup it? anyone know?
I already setup my email settings but in mail settings, i dont know what to put on it.

i use this frappe mail because i like the app on the mail, not the email inbox in erpnext, kinda bit confusing on the user interface, not the typical mail inbox.

is the frappe mail working or not? or anyone can help me please? Thanks!

Hi @jvdatahan:

Frappe Mail needs more than just installing an app ā€¦
It works over other services: RabbitMQ, Mail Agents, etc ā€¦

Itā€™s designed for users/orgs with high email requirements. If you are looking for a simple plug&play email tool maybe this is not the right one :wink:

Check this

Hope this helps.

Im gonna use the email from my website. looks like .

name@company.com.

can i use my website email? to use in the frappe mail?
currently im using the website email in the frappe email default email in the erpnext, but i want to use the frappe mail, because of the ā€œMAIL APPā€ looks more friendly user interface.

Is it possible to use my website email hosting for the frappe mail?

Thanks!

Correct me if im wrong i think the name of this is ā€œMAIL CLIENTā€ ?

I just want to use the MAIL CLIENT because of the user interface, more simplified just like the other mail (gmail, yahoo, etc.) simple user interface, i want that compared to the default email inbox in the communications, make me more confusing.

is it possible to use that MAIL CLIENT as my default for incoming email and outgoing?

looks like that. i can access that using my website.com/mail

AFAIK, this mail client works only with Frappe Mail service.

Oh i see, is there any plan that the Frappe Mail Client will work with other Mail service?

Or do you have any recommendation to change the UI of the communications-email-inbox ? looks like Frappe Mail Client, i like the UI of the Frappe Mail Client. I just want to use like that UI.

any recommendations?

UP! anyone can help me?

Hi @jvdatahan:

I think there are no plans for that. Anyway, you can use the framework and frappeui or other frontend tools to build it.

Hi,

There are two ways to use Frappe Mail:

  • Self-host the complete stack, which includes the Client, Server, SpamAssassin, RabbitMQ, and Agent(s).
  • Use it as a service, which will soon be available on Frappe Cloud and for self-hosted users. Emails will be stored exclusively in your siteā€™s database, where the Mail Client is installed.

Oh i see, is there any plan that the Frappe Mail Client will work with other Mail service?

No, the Frappe Mail Client is designed to work only with the Frappe Mail Server. However, you can create your own mail client for services like Gmail or Outlook using Frappeā€™s UI framework.

Which option would be better for self-hosting?

Option 1:
mail VPS = Server + Agent(s) (how many agents should be setup for better performance?)
webmail VPS = Frappe Client

Option 2:
or just all in one VPS?

Option 3:
or install Frappe Client on a ERPNext VPS?

Can I setup email user on traditional email client apps such as Mail on iOS?
