Accessing smtp_server.log

[ndTEC]

Hi,
In v1 i had configured fail2ban using logpath = /opt/postal/log/smtp_server.log
This file is now in the smtp container. Is it safe to bind locally the directory /opt/postal/app/log from the smtp container?
What will happen after an upgrade if i modify the docker-compose.yml from /opt/postal/install?

You could bind the directory if you wanted, have a look at #1637 for ideas about using an override file to make it a little safer

So in the end i did like this. The only thing to keep in mind is the permissions of /opt/log/smtp_server.log . On the docker host it should have rw for others.
smtp:
image: ghcr.io/postalserver/postal:2.0.0
command: postal smtp-server
network_mode: host
cap_add:
- NET_BIND_SERVICE
volumes:
- /opt/postal/config:/config
- /opt/log/smtp_server.log:/opt/postal/app/log/smtp_server.log
restart: always
