I built this after Google Workspace pricing jumped again and I wanted full control over my email stack.

This is a self-hosted email server written in Go, shipped as a single binary. It supports IMAP (with IDLE), SMTP, DKIM, SPF/DMARC, and CalDAV, with modern defaults and minimal configuration.

The goal is something you can run on a small VPS for personal or small-team use without vendor lock-in.

I’d really appreciate feedback on the architecture, security model, and what you’d want to see next.

Why would I pick this over established players : Maddy, Mox, Stalwart ?

Honestly if you need something battle-tested right now, those are solid choices.

I built this because I had specific pain points - didn't want to set up Postgres or MySQL just for email metadata, wanted calendar and contacts baked in for a complete Google Workspace replacement, and wanted dead simple config that still does DKIM/SPF/DMARC properly.

Future roadmap includes SendGrid-style stuff - API for transactional emails, webhooks. But the core idea stays: good architecture, solve real pain points, keep it simple and fast.
