Installation Guide

Please see the installation documentation for setup instructions.

Current setup requirements:

• An operating system, such as:
• • Linux
• • FreeBSD
• • Windows
• • Mac OS
• Python 3.7.3 or higher with dependencies from requirements.txt.
• Web server with proxy capabilities for the UI.

Migration disclaimer:

While compatible with the original Pony Mail, this will not be a drop-in replacement. Migration of the old database is required, and most of the older ID generators have been dropped in favor of collision-secure generators.
