 You don't need to change the Nginx site that comes with mailcow: dockerized.

+!!! warning
+    Make sure you run `generate_config.sh` before you enable any site configuration examples below.
+    The script `generate_config.sh` copies snake-oil certificates to the correct location, so the services will not fail to start due to missing files.
+
+!!! info
+    Using the site configs below will **forward ACME requests to mailcow** and let it handle certificates itself.
+    The downside of using mailcow as ACME client behind a reverse proxy is, that you will need to reload Apache after the certificate changed. You can either reload Apache daily or write a script to watch the file for changes.
+
+    If you want to use a local certbot installation, you can omit the configurations for port 80 and change the SSL certificate parameters accordingly.
+    **Make sure you run a post-hook script** when you decide to use external ACME clients. You will find an example at the bottom of this page.
