Checkout the Complete Backup Guide. Backups are easy with SNM.

How to Test for Development

You can test the setup via nixops. After installation, do

nixops create nixops/single-server.nix nixops/vbox.nix -d mail
nixops deploy -d mail
nixops info -d mail

You can then test the server via e.g. telnet. To log into it, use

nixops ssh -d mail mailserver

To test imap manually use

openssl s_client -host mail.example.com -port 143 -starttls imap
