Clients like Thunderbird are great because you have everything stored locally so you can easily search offline. They also support encrypting and decrypting emails in PGP. However, they seem to have the same limitation as protonmail where you can’t search through encrypted emails....
This may be a long shot, but it’s what I do, so it might be an option: Set up a crypto gateway like CipherMail which will automatically decrypt inbound email and sign/encrypt outbound. The result is that your Thunderbird will never get to see an encrypted email, decryption is handled transparently before it hit’s your inbox. Obviously, if you don’t trust your email provider, this is not an option.
This isn’t simple and hence not for everyone, also comes with dependencies on your email provider, but it works flawless for me ever since I set it up. I run my own email server, hence adding in CipherMail wasn’t a big deal.
You would expose the port to your host which makes the db acessible by anything running on the host, docker or native. Something like
`port
5432:5432 `
But I would recommend running a dedicated db for each service. At least that’s what I do.
Simpler setup and therefore less error-prone
More secure because the db’s don’t need to be exposed
Easier to manage because I can independently upgrade, backup, move
Isn’t the point about containers that you keep things which depend on each other together, eliminating dependencies? A single db would be a unecessary dependency in my view. What if one service requires a new version of MySQL, and another one does not yet support the new version?
I also run all my databases via a bind mount
`volume
./data:/etc/postgres/data…`
and each service in it’s own directory. E.g. /opt/docker/nextcloud
That way I have everything which makes up a service contained in one folder. Easy to backup/restore, easy to move, and not the least, clean.
Why Not Store Encrypted Emails in Plaintext Locally?

Is it possible to have just one DB across all services
I’m pretty new to the self hosting thing but I’m enjoying it a lot and want to go a bit further down the proverbial rabbit hole....
Built a Small Offsite backup machine! What to run on it? (lemmy.world)
As the title says, i recently printed a nice case for my RPi3 and HDD that intend to run as an offsite backup machine....
What can the 'average Joe' start hosting, that will change their life?
I’m already hosting pihole, but i know there’s so much great stuff out there! I want to find some useful things that I can get my hands on. Thanks!...
