mailadm

mailadm is an administration tool for creating and removing e-mail accounts (especially temporary accounts) on a mailcow mail server. This makes creating an email account as easy as scanning a QR code.

The general idea of how it works:

  1. Admins generate an "account creation token", which can be displayed as a QR code
  2. A soon-to-be user uses an email client to scan the QR code, which sends a web request to mailadm
  3. mailadm creates the account and sends the password to the Delta Chat app, the user is automatically logged in to the new account

mail clients with mailadm support

So far only the Delta Chat messenger supports mailadm.
