About Nextcloud Mail
Nextcloud Mail is an email app you install into a Nextcloud server. It connects to existing IMAP mail accounts and shows them in the browser alongside the other Nextcloud apps, so your mail sits next to your files, calendar and contacts on a server you run.
It suits people and organisations that already run Nextcloud and want webmail without a separate service. It is not a mail server, so you still need a provider or your own server for the mailboxes themselves.
