Webmail server with multiple mail accounts - eviltoast

I like using thunderbird to have all my emails in the same place, in a unified inbox. This doesn’t allow me to access my inbox on my phone etc though, so I’m looking for a FOSS way to solve this problem.

My idea would be to selfhost a website, like a webmail site, that has the functionality of connecting to different mail servers and unifying the inbox to get all my mail in the same place. Should be accessible by android phones and iPads.

Is there a better way to do this? Maybe with nextcloud? If anyone has an idea, let me know.

    I’d suggest trying FairEmail on your phone, https://email.faircode.eu/, before trying to set up an email server.

    I would ask if you have good knowledge of IMAP. That allows access to a unified inbox from several devices and you don’t have to own the server. It is far preferable to webmail for me.

    I host my own email server and use many devices all over IMAP. If you need a server, nixos-mailserver is my recommendation. You could then try Roundcube on top but I bet you will use IMAP instead before you get there.
