Hello all,
I have been looking at the documentation for the kopano-docker project regarding using 587 (Submission) instead of the default port 25 (SMTP), but am struggling to figure out how to modify this setup to do so.

I am using my own ssl certificates and have attempted to modify the docker-mailserver to use those certificates. Here’s what I changed:

# docker-compose.mail.yml
services:
  mail:
    image: mailserver/docker-mailserver:10
    restart: unless-stopped
    hostname: mail # hostname and domainname may need to be commented on some platforms (e.g. ChromeOS)
    domainname: ${LDAP_DOMAIN}
    container_name: ${COMPOSE_PROJECT_NAME}_mail
    ports:
      - "${SMTPPORT:-25}:25"
      - "${SMTPSPORT:-465}:465"
      - "${MSAPORT:-587}:587"
    volumes:
      - maildata:/var/mail
      - mailstate:/var/mail-state
      - maillogs:/var/log/mail
      - mtaconfig:/tmp/docker-mailserver/
      #- ./swag/config/etc/letsencrypt/live/example.org/:/tmp/ssl
      - type: bind
        source: ./swag/config/etc/letsencrypt/archive/example.org/fullchain1.pem
        target: /tmp/ssl/fullchain.pem
      - type: bind
        source: ./swag/config/etc/letsencrypt/archive/example.org/privkey1.pem
        target: /tmp/ssl/privkey.pem

# docker-compose.yml
  kopano_spooler:

    read_only: true
    restart: unless-stopped
    hostname: spooler # hostname and domainname may need to be commented on some platforms (e.g. ChromeOS)
    domainname: ${LDAP_DOMAIN}
    depends_on:
      - kopano_server
    volumes:
      - /etc/machine-id:/etc/machine-id
      - /etc/machine-id:/var/lib/dbus/machine-id
      - kopanosocket/:/run/kopano
      - kopanossl/:/kopano/ssl
    environment:
      - KCCONF_SPOOLER_LOG_LEVEL=3
      - KCCONF_SPOOLER_LOG_TIMESTAMP=0
      - KCCONF_SPOOLER_SMTP_SERVER=mail
      - KCCONF_SPOOLER_SMTP_PORT=587
      - KCCONF_SPOOLER_SSLKEY_FILE=/kopano/ssl/kopano_spooler.pem
      - SERVICE_TO_START=spooler
      - TZ=${TZ}
    env_file:
      - kopano_spooler.env
    networks:
      - kopano-net
    tmpfs:
      - /tmp

Take note that I changed KCCONF_SPOOLER_SMTP_PORT to point to 587 and am using SSL_TYPE, SSL_{CERT,KEY}_PATH to point to my SSL certificate generated via a separate Letsencrypt instance.

After making these changes, I run into this error when trying to send email via the WebApp:

Unfortunately, kopano-spooler was unable to deliver your mail.
The error given was:

5.7.0 Must issue a STARTTLS command first

You may need to contact your e-mail administrator to solve this problem.

I have looked all over the docker-mailserver docs, but don’t see any obvious suggestions on how to change this in the way it’s being used with kopano-docker. I feel like I am missing something obvious.

Any suggestions would be much appreciated!
