Having trouble with the settings of my `mail-receiver` container not taking effect in various ways. I’d like to just reset or recreate it. How can this be done in the context of Discourse’s [method of direct-delivery of incoming mail](https://meta.discourse.org/t/straightforward-direct-delivery-incoming-mail/49487)?

Just edit the `yml` file and `./launcher rebuild mail-receiver`

@pfaffman that is the crazy, crazy, crazy thing: that doesn’t work for me. I’ve done this several times now and both `./launcher logs mail-receiver` and some of the actual configs within the container itself (`./launcher enter mail-receiver`) don’t change!
I’m about to lose my mind over it, and thus why I’m looking for another option at this point to nuke it and start again to see if that helps…
UPDATE: so I found that after the git sources were updated that this is working now! I don’t know what may have happened, but I’m so happy to now have `./launcher rebuild mail-receiver` work!
