| Privacy | The project recommends local Ollama for privacy and supports self-hosting. | The maker says mail remains with the email provider and is not copied or mirrored to Metis servers; mailbox access is revoked when disconnected. |
| Self-hosting | MailFlow can be run as a full web, API, and worker stack using Docker Compose. | The complete client and phishing checker can run on the user's hardware or cloud, with the hosted and self-hosted versions described as using the same code and features. |
