Go for aapanel. Its application stack has a mail server app. I haven't used it anywhere but all other services that I ever used, never had a problem

It won't disappoint you

i m using aapanel and i had several problems ..their support is terrible (forum or paid support)
fastpanel have better support (free support 30-2 h they help free ticket system)

because i need only the mail server with alias and forwards (also in that aapanel had problems in the past today i dont know ..)

Appanel works fine and for me its one of the best free panel although they have poor support.

yes i know it i have use it in an older version of aapanel in 2021 (had many issues)

now i testing Cyberpanel very heavy for a low spec VPS (4 cpu 4 gb ram)
with zero working load
have forward yes
but no alias !!! ( go and make 100+ one by one ) lol

about aapanel have forwards only (and must create them one by one) i didn't fount alias ...

Fastpanel is lighter you can make fast alias in few seconds !!!

I'm using for years Plesk + Contabo VPS following SEO friend advice I'm moving to HestiaCP + OVH VPS to cut expenses. I like Plesk but is complex, bigger, and costly.

I tested VestaCP but I like more HestiaCP (VestaCP fork).

I'm familiar with Nginx and Apache and not with Litespeed.

Reading this interesting treat I'm curious about Cyberpanel + Openlitespeed but I'm in the process to tune up the HestiaCP panel. I'm a rookie with Linux installations.

I've been using ispconfig for 10 years, now it seems to be stuck in time.

I looked for a light pannel dashboard, I manage client sites, I don't need a module for them.

The best for me

AApanel (debian 10, vps vultr 4vcpu 16gb) is working fine. It has 30 websites (all wordpress) hosted, running for 6 months without problems. It's running with nginx, php8.1, mariadb, redis, memcached.

WordOps (debian 10, vps vultr 4vcpu 16gb) also works fine, 2 months, 15 sites, running with no issues or bugs

After a few weeks, I'm working again on the new server. I found these videos that explain very well the differences between control panels I stand with HestiaCP at the end.

Hey you can use plesk with digital ocean it’s totally free up to 3 domains. I think 3 websites for single vps is quit good
Best wishes

I finally stay with HestiaCP with OVH and left Contabo + Plesk. Very annoying work to tune up the server manually but now I understand the workflow with HestiaCP so I can save money compared to Plesk.

OVH takes me away from all the onetime fee IPs I have so. I don´t need OVH but for me now is a headache to migrate again the server.
