Another great option would be Pagure (https://pagure.io/pagure), which has a nice interface for online issue tracking alongside smooth email integration. To get an idea of what a self-hosted Pagure instance might look like, see https://dev.midipix.org/
A template for setting up a pagure instance can be found under:
