Thank you, this is essential! Reading mox FAQ, it looks close enough to the ideal: https://www.xmox.nl/faq/#hdr-how-do-i-stay-up-to-date I'm currently running a more classic setup with postfix and dovecot, because the updates and security fixes are managed by Debian. Once things are configured, I don't need to do anything using unattended upgrades (other than upgrade Debian itself when the LTS version goes out of support, that is!). At this point it is easier for me to not touch what I have, but in my next mail server I will consider mox! |

This is a good point. It would be great to have mox packaged in more distributions. I spoke with a package maintainer about this. They understandably need to be able to upgrade unattended from old versions to a new version. In the past year, admins have had to run an upgrade command here and there (e.g. to reparse all the messages after the parsing code changed). I hope to make all this more automatic this year. That should make it more appealing for packagers (and for all non-distro-using admins too!).
I think a new debian LTS release will be coming up soonish, we probably won't make that.
