* Nico Schottelius via Postfix-users [18/10/2024 10:55] :

- Others might start using my postfix container due to the lack of an
  official postfix container [2]

There is no reason that the existence of a container leads to random people running it. There's no reason to make a container public if you know that it is not going to be useful to anyone else.

- To avoid that, my recommendation is that the postfix project provides a container itself

This is the part I don't get. Why is others running your postfix
container something to be avoided? What is the difference between
the official postfix container and yours that we should encourage people
to use the former and not the latter?

Excellent question...

One answer the OP gave regarding his motivation is that he wants to manage everything with kubernetes. Backing off to saying that he would build the container himself but for the "risk" of others using it is not credible.

I suspect that this thread has already taken more time & effort than it would take for one sysadmin with k8s expertise to build a working Postfix container for their own use. I'm sure that it has taken more time than just building up a standalone VM with a working Postfix deployment.
