# Setup Proton Bridge

This uses the docker container from `shenxn`

[Link to shenxn/protonmail-bridge-docker](https://github.com/shenxn/protonmail-bridge-docker)

## Setting up user

Setup user `protonmail` 

```
sudo adduser protonmail
sudo usermod -aG docker protonmail
```

## Run 

```
docker run --rm -it -v protonmail:/root shenxn/protonmail-bridge init
```

If bridge is already in the docker-compose.yml, use this

```
docker compose run protonmail-bridge init
```

This command will map the ports, if ufw is allowing requests to port 25/143

```
docker run -d --name=protonmail-bridge -v protonmail:/root -p 1025:25/tcp -p 1143:143/tcp --restart=unless-stopped shenxn/protonmail-bridge
```
