Self-Hosted Mail Server Solutions for Businesses
Take greater control of your business email with a professionally configured and managed self-hosted mail server. We deploy and manage Mailcow, a modern mail platform built around Postfix, Dovecot, Rspamd, ClamAV, Nginx, SOGo and Docker. Elgonsoft Solutions deploys, configures, secures and manages Mailcow for your business — we do not develop Mailcow itself.

Common Questions
Do you develop Mailcow?
No. Mailcow is an existing open-source mail platform. We deploy, configure, secure and manage it for your business.
Will my emails always reach the inbox?
We configure authentication (SPF, DKIM, DMARC) and infrastructure according to recommended practices to improve reliability and deliverability, but we cannot guarantee inbox placement, as this also depends on factors outside our control.
Can you migrate us from cPanel or another host without losing email?
Yes. We plan mailbox migration and DNS cutover carefully to minimize disruption, and verify mail flow after migration.
Do we need our own server?
We can provision a suitable server as part of the setup, or work with a server you already have.
