I was actually thinking of trying to write a general Scheme module for a quick, minimal setup of email on Guix, but right now my system configuration is an ugly monolith. My roadmap looks like this: 1. Abstract email away from the system. 2. Build a personal PGP infrastructure. 3. Use the above to serve Git repositories. 4. Use the above to modularize my Guix configurations; prepare to use Linux From Scratch books to build my personal distribution of Guix 5. Learn how to use Emacs tools to automate publishing of web content <= This is where I could try writing some text about serving email from Guix. Would you like a copy of my current system configuration for reference? > > I need to abstract email accounts from system accounts > > There are many ways to do that [2] although more detailed inquiries > might be better placed with the Dovecot folks. I started writing a refusing answer, but did one more search for virtual_users and found that Dovecot docs do include a “Simple Virtual User Installation.” I will try following that. It is not as self-containing solution as I hoped, but I need to get things done before optimizing them.
