Notes
After installing, open the web interface and create the administrator account with the setup code the installer printed. It is also in the server log (journalctl -u magisend).
Choose Advanced in the Proxmox installer to set container ID, static IP, VLAN, root password, a public URL for a reverse proxy, and to add ClamAV virus scanning (needs at least 2560 MB RAM).
Behind Nginx Proxy Manager, set MAGISEND_PUBLIC_ORIGIN and MAGISEND_TRUSTED_PROXIES in /etc/magisend/environment and restart the service. Use HTTPS when reachable from outside your network.
