Feature Request
This is more or less a follow-up of @OrvilleQ's PR that brought general Podman support.
As OrvilleQ mentioned earlier, another PR should fix this.
Context
Currently the script will complain with the message
Curently docker-mailserver doesn't support podman's rootless modeif it is running rootless.Is your Feature Request related to a Problem?
docker-mailserver cannot be run in rootless mode.
Describe the Solution you'd like
It should be running in rootless mode.
I'm new to podman, so I don't know exactly how a proper solution should look like.
To be honest, I'm not even sure what it needs root for.
As far as I understood, the port within the container image shouldn't matter (since it can be mapped at the host), right?
And on the outside only the
CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICEcapability should be needed for privileged ports, right?Are you going to implement it?
No, and I understand that it is highly likely no one will implement it. Furthermore, I understand that this issue will likely become stale and will be closed.
Additional context
Alternatives you've considered
Not using
docker-mailserverfor projects that require rootless mode, I guess? 🤷Who will that Feature be useful to?
For people using rootless services as it is commonly suggested.
What have you done already?
Nothing except writing this issue.
