What tasks you want to run on it? There is no universal server setup.

This is the typical example of 'I have a solution here. No who's got a problem?' Hahahaha.

For mail server you'll need:

  • dovecot
  • dovecot-pigeonhole
  • postfix
  • amavis
  • opendmarc
  • opendkim

Also be prepared, the mail server setup is not trivial.

Additionally, you'll need:

  • local-unbound
  • chrony

I can't help you for jellyfin, never installed it manually - I run it on unRaid Linux in docker.
