Hello,  
I am wanting to replace Zoom with my team. I want to enable Nextcloud Talk on my Mail-in-a-Box instance. I wanted to ask why is Nextcloud Talk not installed by default, and **how bad** is this modification actually? Like, is it likely to screw stuff up?

I have been using talk in MIAB for quite some time. No problem. It’s not officially supported but unofficially it works 👍

If it breaks anything, you can always remove it

> Hello! After much discussion across the discourse board here, I have seen quite a few of you want to be able to use webmail in NextCloud, and some specifically wanting RainLoop. Here is a step by step for those interested. NOTE: This is an unsupported modification, so not a lot of people will help you if you run into problems, but I have been using this setup for over a year now with no issues. Just continue at your own risk! NOTE2: This guide assumes you have MiaB setup already and working! …

Every update you will receive a Warning that you have unlocked Nextcloud and it will say You are on your own if anything breaks.
