Can a email server be hosted and run from a snap server?

Nope

Not as they stand

It could be possible with a java app, but it would be too complex

You have NO way to install an application on the SNAP. They are for storage only.

I was 99% sure the answer was no but wanted to make sure. I am looking for a nice hardware CHEAP email solution.


Thanks.

If you have any old computer laying around, Install FreeBSD on it. A mail server is included with the port collection. You can run apache for a webserver too.

The Linksys NSLU2 and a Flash drive could work also

There are packages for it
