Hestia 1.10.0 should fix the issues:
main ← sahsanu:fix-snappymail-with-new-php-services
merged 08:28AM - 09 Jun 26 UTC
**1.-** Move SnappyMail configuration and data to `/var/lib/snappymail` to suppo… rt recent PHP-FPM systemd hardening changes (`ProtectSystem=full`). With newer PHP versions, keeping SnappyMail data under `/etc/snappymail` causes permission errors. While a systemd override using `ReadWritePaths=/etc/snappymail/data` is possible, migrating the configuration avoids additional overrides and ensures compatibility with newer and hardened PHP-FPM services.
**2.-** Update SnappyMail download URL from snappymail.eu to GitHub releases because snappymail.eu has been unavailable for several days, making installations impossible. This change restores reliable installation by switching to the official GitHub release distribution.
**3.-** Replaced `/etc/snappymail` to `/var/lib/snappymail` in several scripts and functions.
**4.-** Fix SnappyMail plugin configuration issues:
- Preserve indentation in sed replacements for hestia_host and hestia_port
- Fix hestia_port sed command which was incorrectly replacing with hestia_host
- Use correct argv index ($argv[5]) for BACKEND_PORT, previously using $argv[4] (DB password)
- Cast hestia_port to int so json_encode writes it as a number instead of a string
- Fix json_decode call to use file_get_contents() instead of passing a file path directly

Thank you for your answer. will you consider afterlogic that it seems nice and strong mail client on further versions of HestiaCP?
Out there is Cypht , that looks good too but sincerely I didn’t take a look either to Cypht or Afterlogic to know whether those webmails could be integrated with Hestia.
And for versión 1.9.9 can install?

1.10 got released today
We are not releasing a fix for Ubuntu Focal as it already EOL for over a year..
I have it running on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS. I can update to 1.10.1 without any problems, right? I installed it a couple of days ago.

Yes I haven’t released in beta-apt.hestiacp.com yet but disable beta-apt in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/hestia.list and run apt update && apt upgrade
Okay, I just restarted and it updated to version 1.10.1—everything’s fine there—but I want to set up SnappyMail to test it. However, it doesn’t show up as an option in the mail configuration, and the command line gives me this error: “Error: Installed version (2.38.2) is equal to the available version (2.38.2).” How do I activate it?
