Setting up your
private email engine.
MailRivo is designed to run on your own hardware. This guide will walk you through getting your server ready and launching the platform in under 2 minutes.
Server Requirements
To ensure MailRivo runs efficiently and handles your campaigns with maximum stability, your server must meet these minimum requirements.
One-Command Launch
Once you have your server and domain ready, login to your VPS via SSH and run the following command. This will download the MailRivo engine and configure your environment.
curl -sSL https://get.mailrivo.com/install.sh -o install.sh && chmod +x install.sh && sudo ./install.shDomain Configuration
To point your domain to your new MailRivo instance, add an A Record in your DNS provider settings.
| Type | Host / Name | Value (IP) | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| A | @ | YOUR_SERVER_IP | yourdomain.com |
Using a Subdomain?
If you prefer to host the dashboard on a subdomain (for example, mail.yourdomain.com), set the Host to your prefix (e.g., mail) instead of using the @ symbol.
Connecting SMTP / SES
MailRivo connects to high-performance infrastructure like AWS SES or SMTP2GO. This ensures highest deliverability at the lowest cost.
