Could you please tell - if I can use documentserver+communityserver+controlpanel+mysql docker containers without to up onlyoffice/mailserver container?

My clean install is described [here](https://community.onlyoffice.com/t/docker-onlyoffice-mailserver-stucks-in-an-infinite-restart-loop/16023)

This question was previously asked [here](https://github.com/ONLYOFFICE/Docker-CommunityServer/issues/92) but the topicstarter seems not opened new issue, so I try right on [community.onlyoffice.com](http://community.onlyoffice.com).

Thank you

Hey @derkontakt, 👋

You can definitely set up Workspace without running the `onlyoffice/mailserver` container.

To make this easier, try using our installation script with a custom parameter to skip the mail server:  
[https://helpcenter.onlyoffice.com/workspace/installation/workspace-install-docker-parameters.aspx](https://helpcenter.onlyoffice.com/workspace/installation/workspace-install-docker-parameters.aspx)

```bash
bash workspace-install.sh -ims false

```

This will install all ONLYOFFICE Workspace components without including ONLYOFFICE Mail.  
Let me know if I missed anything!
