mixandClaude Opus 5.5 1c6e04b7d3 base-trixie: the image on Debian trixie, Postfix 3.10.13; Received: hidden on 465/587
test / test (push) Canceled after 0s
The runtime base is debian:trixie-slim, the build stage golang:1.26-trixie:
Postfix 3.10.13 with upstream's 2026 security fixes up to the August
batch, libmilter 8.18.1, OpenSSL 3.5. Every citation of another program in
code, scripts and documents was re-read against the trixie sources
(dev/upstream; bookworm's kept in dev/upstream-bookworm) and updated;
development.md's cited-package table holds the trixie versions.

What the re-reading changed in behaviour:
- logtail: reject lines with sasl_method/sasl_username/sasl_sender
  (smtpd_check.c:1019-1026); cleanup's "removed (canceled)" forgets a
  port-25 id (cleanup_api.c:363-364).
- internal/postfix/retry.go reads postconf's stdout only: since 3.9 a
  deprecated-parameter warning on stderr made one value too many and the
  panel fell back to the compiled-in retry policy.
- logrotate-loop.sh: logrotate 3.22 exits 1 when it ignores a config;
  the loop refuses on that output whatever the status.
- postfix-config.sh: cyrus_sasl_config_path set explicitly (bookworm's
  07_sasl_config.diff is gone); maillog_file_permissions=0640; mynetworks
  explicit; Dockerfile: SYNC_CHROOT= in /etc/default/postfix,
  opendkim-tools dropped, openssl named, systemd-standalone-sysusers so
  cron does not bring the whole of systemd.
- The selfpost group is 10998, outside the system range 100-999: in
  trixie a package took 998 and the build failed (owner's decision:
  a conflict-free id, the distribution's own ids untouched). The
  entrypoint hands /data back by name when the user or the group differs.
  Guide, backup refusal text, help (design commit 68ec8b2), e2e.
- smtpd_hide_client_session=yes on smtps and submission (owner's
  decision): Received: names no client, TLS, login or protocol; port 25
  keeps the full header. e2e checks both.
- test/upstream/opendkim-probe.sh makes keys with openssl genrsa.

Tests: on the server, make e2e exit 0 (674 s, the image built on trixie),
go vet + go test 27 packages ok. CHANGELOG [Unreleased], guide,
architecture.md, security.md, roadmap.

mixandClaude Opus 5.5 6023feb405 audit 6: documents, comments, dead code and staticcheck; the test gaps closed
test / test (push) Canceled after 0s
The last stage of the 2026-10-12 audit; no cut.

Doc drift: architecture.md (the sender check in § OpenDKIM, the limit:
row's 48 hours, the inbound log and filter-list routes and who may open
them, migrations to 0011 and every table, KitPage as production data,
Reload configuration as a restore writes, the panel's roles counted),
schema-migrations.md (tables and columns since v2), guide.md (a delivery's
lines go at the next prune; INBOUND_JOURNAL_MILTER_SOCKET moved to
architecture.md's internal list), development.md (the env guard, the
deferral the e2e proves, its fixed sleeps), roadmap.md.

Comments say what the code does now; TestBaselineIsTheOnlyMigration is
TestChainStartsAtTheBaseline; the milter package doc names its three
milters.

Dead code gone: view.Facts, dmarc HostedSuggestion and
ValidateHostedAddress, app UpdateMode (each with the test that alone kept
it), the method checks the method-bound routes made dead;
Settings.WithResult calls resultFlash. staticcheck 2026.1 in test.yml on
both modules, clean: the e2e package builds without its tests now (a test
and two constants moved out of non-test files), three findings fixed.
The test moved, TestImageBuildPreservesLogrotateMode, had sat in a
non-test file and never run; run, it failed on the entrypoint (docker run
without a hostname) and now asks with --entrypoint stat.

The test gaps no step named, each closed: follow() with mail.log gone past
blindMin and made again; CheckRestore with a manifest that is not JSON;
the origin check with a port; every /server/ pattern in web.go through
server() and in the routes table (it found GET /server/health/fragment
missing from the table - guarded, not tested); L9 as the owner decided it
on 2026-10-12, the comment on senderSession.Headers and the test passing
an h that holds the earlier messages' From:.

Plan stage 6 ticked; roadmap audit row done, 81/81.

Tested on the test server: go vet + go test of 27 packages, make e2e (all
pass, 513 s) on this tree; staticcheck locally on both modules.

mixandClaude Opus 5.5 c8f669714e journal milter: recipients as Postfix logs them, once each
test / test (push) Canceled after 0s
The row's recipient has to be the address Postfix writes in to=<..> or
orig_to=<..>, or the delivery line finds no row and the sweep closes it as
bounced. Postfix 3.7.11 hands the milter the RCPT argument as the client
wrote it (smtpd.c, milter_argv(); extract_addr() leaves it), go-milter
v0.4.1 trims "<>" and drops the ESMTP parameters (session.go, case
CodeRcpt) - so cleanAddress's cut at the first blank broke a quoted local
part (B-G5). Postfix keeps the address in internal form (tok822: quotes
off, backslash escapes taken) and logs it external
(info_log_addr_form.c, quote_822_local(): quoted again only when not a
dot-string); recipientAsLogged does the same, "ab"@x -> ab@x, "a b"@x
stays. A recipient given twice in any case is one row: cleanup drops the
duplicate, comparing folded (cleanup_out_recipient.c, been_here(),
BH_FLAG_FOLD; A-31). A rewritten recipient is matched by orig_to=, which
log_adhoc() writes only when it differs (A-9). The store's
case-insensitive match stays, now with its reason from the source (D-S20).

Stand (2026-10-14, make e2e, exit 0): new recipients_as_postfix_logs_them
- RCPT TO "x y"@, "ab"@ and "X Y"@ sink.e2e.test give two rows, "x
y"@sink.e2e.test and ab@sink.e2e.test, both sent. go vet and go test ./...
pass on the server; a unit test drives the milter through go-milter's own
client.

mixandClaude Opus 5.5 599149bf83 build, deploy, inbound, dmarc, backup, e2e: cite the source of what they rely on (assumptions part C)
Comments only, no behaviour changed. Each main.cf/master.cf parameter the
build sets, the wrapper's and the reload hook's reliance on Postfix 3.7.11
(postfix-script, master.5, postconf.5, cleanup_init.c, smtpd_peer.c,
README_FILES), supervisor 4.2.5 (process.py, options.py, events.rst),
logrotate 3.21.0, OpenDKIM's config, Cyrus SASL's sasldb, rspamd 3.11.1
(milter_headers.lua, multimap, the map watcher), Docker Compose, CoreDNS
and certbot now say where that is written. Measurements already there stay
measurements ("date not recorded" where none was); hand-composed fixtures
say so.

Contradictions left for their own commits: C-P31 cleanup's size limit,
C-P42 master outside supervisor's signal, C-V5/V6 startsecs, C-V10,
C-S3/Q3 sasldb written in place, C-Q4/A1 certbot's symlinks, C-R7 rspamd
skips local clients but the signature routine does not, C-P8, C-R4, C-R12,
C-M7, C-E2, C-K8/K9, C-D1.

mixandClaude Opus 5.5 60c7b85f84 findings of the reviews of audit stage 1
test / test (push) Canceled after 0s
Technical review (Opus) and security review (Fable) of 9efc9c7..a59e3d4;
reports in the session's scratchpad. Fixed:

- B1 (verified bug): store.UpdateStatus read before writing in its
  transaction; a commit by another connection in between (the dmarc-ingest
  process opens the same file) failed it at once with "database is locked"
  and the delivery line was lost. The first statement is now a write.
- R3: a delivery line updated every row of its queue id and recipient; it
  now updates only the newest (Postfix reuses short ids). The sweep closes
  by row id (QueuedDelivery.ID, CloseUnreported(id)).
- R4: a contradicted sweep keeps a mark, reason "reconcile-contradicted",
  instead of losing which row it was.
- R1: contradicted cannot see a lost line (never read late). New counter
  reconcile_missed: at close, the sweep looks for the row's delivery line
  in mail.log and mail.log.1 (QueueLines). 0007 edited - it has run on no
  database but throwaway stands.
- R2: queued_over_lifetime cannot measure "what removing the sweep would
  leave" while the sweep runs; its text now says rows stuck despite the
  sweep, and the rule uses closed - missed - contradicted.
- cert-reload (R5, R6, R7, security medium/low): both files copied to .new
  and the copies checked as a pair before both are renamed; acts on the copy
  only when postconf says Postfix reads it; a failed reload is retried next
  pass; umask 077; says so when the mounted files cannot be read. The e2e
  case asserts Postfix reads the copy, the copy equals the mount, the key is
  600 root.
- Security low: a recipient with a quoted local part - the journal cut
  "a b"@x at the space, deliveryRe cut "a>b"@x at the ">" - matched no
  delivery line and was closed by the sweep. cleanAddress ends a bracketed
  address at the first ">" outside quotes; deliveryRe takes the recipient
  up to the ">, " before relay= (test fixtures given the relay= every real
  delivery line has).
- Security low: postqueue -p's error carries at most 512 bytes of output.
- Nits: addDeliveryLogDay refuses a column not on its list; the truncation
  test checks its message.
- To stage 2b (page wording, mockup-first): the history step of a bounced
  row says the receiving server refused it, false for a row the sweep
  closed. To the owner when stage 2b is reached: since M13 the "deferred"
  figure counts whole messages too, which "Connections turned away" would
  not name.

Found while verifying: the e2e's main positive path failed once with "553
not owned by user app1" - an smtpd idle from before the panel's reload took
the connection in the reload's second. Measured on the stand (one-off
probe, not committed): sending 0, 10, 40, 110 s after the save (two seconds
at the soonest) always met an smtpd started after the reload. The e2e now
waits for the sender map after each application it creates
(waitForSenderMap: AUTH, MAIL, RCPT, RSET - no message, no row), and the
level-1 case uses it instead of its own loop.

Docs: architecture § Queue reconcile, schema-migrations (rows 7 and 8,
chain head 8), CHANGELOG, audit plan (stage 1 note, the measured window,
a new stage 2b line: 62 lines), roadmap 15/62.

Evidence on the test server for this tree: go vet clean, go test ./... 23
packages ok, make e2e exit 0 (renewed certificate, hung panel, level 1 at
49/60).

mixandClaude Opus 5.5 96425dd515 e2e: a negative case passes only on its own refusal (audit stage 0)
sendResult.refusedAt(stage, code, text) and replyIs(err, code, text):
nil only for the server's reply with that code and text at that stage;
a reset, a timeout or another reply is described for the failure.

- level 1: only anvil's "450 4.7.1 Error: too much mail from", only after
  a message of the loop was accepted. Held to that, it failed twice on
  the stand, each time for a real reason:
  1. waitForSMTPSReady took a TCP connect for readiness; Docker's port
     proxy accepts before Postfix listens and then resets - the reset
     once taken for the limit. It now waits for the TLS 220 greeting.
  2. the first message then got "553 ... not owned by user l1app": an
     smtpd idle from before the panel's postfix reload took the
     connection with the old sender_login_maps. The level-1 limit had
     never been what the case saw. The first message now waits (15 s at
     most) for the map, failing at once on any other refusal.
  Now: "level-1 limit tripped on attempt 51/60: 450 4.7.1 Error: too
  much mail from 10.77.0.1".
- level 2: 451 4.7.1 at MAIL, and both MAIL FROM of one connection.
- sender mismatch: 553 at RCPT, "not owned by user".
- no AUTH and the relay case: 554 "Client host rejected: Access
  denied" at RCPT; the relay case's comment claimed
  reject_unauth_destination, which on 465 comes after the client
  restriction - port 25 holds "554 Relay access denied".
- port 25: 550 5.1.1 for unknown recipients and report addresses.
- panel down: a 4xx reply (textproto), not just text starting with 4.

The product side (a second after an application is saved when its first
message can get 553) is written in the audit plan, not changed. Audit plan
line ticked with what was found, roadmap 7/61. No CHANGELOG line: tests only.

Evidence: make e2e on the test server for this tree, exit 0.

mixandClaude Opus 5.5 c171fb5bc7 from-header-binding: the sender check, what it costs, its pages; guide, architecture, security
test / test (push) Canceled after 0s
A message's From: line is held against the application that sends it, under
the rule Postfix holds the envelope sender to. OpenDKIM chooses the key by
that line, so until now an application could have mail signed as another
domain of the server or as the server itself.

The check (internal/milter/sender.go)
- A role of the panel on a socket of its own (SENDER_CHECK_SOCKET), first in
  smtpd_milters and strict: default_action=tempfail. The journal milter keeps
  its socket and stays fail-open. postfix-wrapper waits for the new socket.
- It reads no database: what an application may send as comes from Postfix's
  own sender_login_maps, what the server signs for from OpenDKIM's
  SigningTable. Both are read again when they change; one that cannot be
  read defers mail.
- One From: field, one address, allowed by the envelope's lookup; then no
  other name of the SigningTable may appear anywhere in the raw line.
  Refused: 550 5.7.1 naming the line, reduced to printable ASCII.
- A refusal is a send-log row with reason "from" and the header address
  (migration 0006), written by another goroutine and not waited for. The
  journal's refusals record their reason too (limit, client), and the
  notifier takes only a limit's.

What it costs (docs/plans/from-header-binding.md, Statistics)
- The role marks itself alive every 2 s; at start the gap since the mark is
  downtime, counted from Postfix's start if later and not at all when
  supervisord says Postfix is not running.
- The log tailer counts the connections Postfix turned away: a warning that
  names the socket, then milter-reject "Service unavailable" from the same
  smtpd. Seen on the stand: the client is refused from CONNECT on and leaves
  at AUTH (454), so no MAIL line is ever written.
- sender_check_days, a row per UTC day, kept a year.

Pages
- Health: the card "Sender check", the socket's row, and the cards layout -
  boxes numbered by importance in two stacks read in rows; the left stack
  polls, the three readings of the right one are swapped in by id.
- Outbound log: a refused row says why in its tag (wrong From, wrong client,
  rate-limited); the message's page shows the From: line and what the
  application may send as.
- Help: topic "Sender check", word for word the mockup's.

Found by the stand, fixed here: the names for the second look came from the
sender bindings, and a domain with a key and no application yet was not
among them.

e2e: negative_journal_milter_fail_open is gone - it proved that mail passes
with the panel down, which is no longer so. In its place
sender_check_holds_the_from_line (another domain's From:, the hostname's, a
stranger's, an address off the list, another sender in the display name -
refused; own addresses - delivered) and panel_down_defers_mail (4xx with the
panel stopped, the container alive, mail again after, downtime and one
deferred message on Health, the card warning).

Test server, this tree before the last cosmetic edits (a fixture row, a
fact's size, docs): go vet ok, go test 23 packages ok, make e2e ok (337 s).
Locally after them: internal/web/view ok.

mixandClaude Opus 5.5 5f86457848 milter: the level-2 limit and the client IP list hold for every message
Security fix, outside the inbound antispam feature. Found by its
technical review (Opus, 2026-10-12), reproduced on the test stand
before the fix: over an application's level-2 limit, two MAIL FROM on
one connection were answered 451 and then accepted.

Cause. Postfix introduces a client to a milter once per connection.
The milter library (go-milter 0.4.1, session.go) replaces the milter's
session after any reply that is not "continue" - a refusal, or the
accept that used to end a message. The new session never saw Connect,
so it had no client address, and both checks passed a message without
one: overLimit returned early ("no client IP to key on") and
authIPAllowed did the same. So every message after the first on a
connection, and every MAIL FROM after a refused one, skipped the
level-2 limit and an application's client IP list. In the code since
1.9.0 for the list and longer for the limit.

Fix.
  - build/postfix-config.sh: milter_mail_macros carries {client_addr},
    so the address comes with every MAIL FROM; MailFrom reads it (both
    spellings of IPv6) in the journal milter and the inbound journal
    milter.
  - overLimit no longer asks for a client address: a ceiling is on a
    domain or an application.
  - authIPAllowed refuses an application that has a client IP list when
    no address is known.
  - Body replies "continue" in both milters, which lets the message
    through as "accept" did and keeps the session.

The inbound journal milter had the same cause with a smaller effect:
rows of a connection's later messages had no client address.

In the same file, the checks of INBOUND_ANTISPAM_MILTER and
INBOUND_JOURNAL_MILTER_SOCKET refuse any character outside their set
first: a glob's "*" matched anything after the first characters.

Tests: a session that never saw Connect is judged by the macro, a
listed and an unlisted address, no address, not an address; the limit
with no client address; the inbound milter answers only "continue".
test/e2e sends two MAIL FROM on one connection over the limit and
wants both refused.

Checked on the test server: e2e red before the fix on exactly that
check, green after; go vet ./... ok, go test ./... ok (22 packages).
