I agree. On the other hand if Docker goes down, nobody will be using postfix because all containers are down anyways... :P

Btw there is also the live-restore feature that enables you to keep containers running during a downtime of the daemon: docs.docker.com/config/containers/...

I also had the intention of allowing the mail server to accept incoming mail at some point ... and the thought process was I'd rather never have mails bounce, as it's a real downer, especially with potential clients at stake, etc. Mind you, setting up a mail server properly to handle incoming mail is a pain, so I'll probably just delegate that to another mail service provider in the end.

Anyway, thanks for the live-restore feature - I hadn't heard of that until now!
