internal/notify applies the owner's rules. Each subject has a row of state,
so a thing is said once and a restart says nothing again:
- DNS of a sending domain: said after two hourly checks in a row found a
record wrong, said to be over after two found it right. A lookup that did
not answer moves nothing; a warning (no DMARC record) is not a subject.
- TLS certificate: at 14 days and at 3, per certificate.
- Queue: a message older than three days, once; once more when none is.
- Level-2 limit: from the rejected rows of the send log, every five minutes;
at most once a day per domain and application.
Global users are told everything, domain users about their domains; one
message per recipient. With the instance switch off nothing is checked and no
state moves. A message that could not be handed to Postfix is tried again at
the next check.
Mail leaves by sendmail(1) as postmaster@<hostname>, addresses after "--",
no shell. For it to be believed the server's own name is signed like a
sending domain: domain.Service keeps a key for it and a line in OpenDKIM's
tables without a registry row, and non_smtpd_milters now names OpenDKIM. A
sending domain of the same name shares its key with the server.
dnscheck.ServerMail checks the name's DKIM and SPF records;
postfix.QueueMessages reads postqueue -j for arrival times.
The notifier is a sixth role of the panel process. Nothing in the panel
shows or switches it yet.
Checked on Windows: go vet clean; go test passes for notify, store, postfix,
dnscheck, cmd, and domain apart from TestWriteLoadPrivateKeyRoundtrip, which
fails there on file modes and always did. Not yet run in a container: whether
the unprivileged panel may submit is for the e2e step.

Optional inbound relay (backup-MX / forwarder) on port 25, off by default. Mail is accepted only for domains configured in the panel and forwarded to an upstream; there are still no mailboxes. A dedicated security review of the inbound path is still open on the plan (Fable).
Added:
- `INBOUND_RELAY_ENABLE` (default `false`): when true, Postfix listens on
- Panel **Inbound** pages (global administrator): domains, upstream host/port
- Optional `INBOUND_ANTISPAM_MILTER` on the inbound listener only, plus
- Inbound rate limit (`INBOUND_RATE_LIMIT_MESSAGES_PER_IP`, default 20) and
Changed:
- Compose publishes host port 25 even when the flag is off (nothing listens
- Full-backup restore Resync also rebuilds inbound maps when the flag is on.

[1.3.0]
Security and quality after 1.2.5: domain-admin send-log authorization, fail-closed sign-in and application delete, level-2 rate-limit race fix, restore Resync, expanded tests, operator docs, release CI, and OFL for IBM Plex. Upgrading from 1.2.x is a tag bump; no migration.
Added:
- licence: the SIL Open Font License 1.1 text now travels with the IBM Plex
- docs: agreed roadmap item **queue-retries** — show this Postfix's retry
Security:
- The independent security review of the send-log authorization and
Fixed:

- panel (sign-in): a session that cannot be written to the database no longer

[1.3.1]
Retry policy in the panel, persistent Postfix queue, and self-contained full backups. Mail queue and delivery history show this Postfix's first retry, backoff cap, and queue lifetime. Deferred mail survives container recreate. Full backups now archive `data/`, compose, `.env`, and `certs/`; the archive layout breaks 1.3.0 flat backups (unpack those with `tar xzf backup.tar.gz -C ./data` as before). Upgrading from 1.3.0 is a tag bump; no schema migration.
Added:
- Mail queue and a delivery's history show this Postfix's retry policy
- docs: **Plan checklists** in [development.md](docs/development.md) — format,

Squashed CHANGELOG sections: [1.3.0], [1.3.1].
Full detail: CHANGELOG.md (1.3.0, 1.3.1).
The first MINOR after 1.0.0: send-only DMARC guidance in the panel, AGPL packaging on every page, and an internal split of `internal/web` ahead of domain-admin work. Upgrading runs one SQLite migration (empty defaults; existing DNS guidance is unchanged until you set a report address).
Changed:
- `internal/web` split into subpackages (`web/view`, `web/auth`, `web/validate`,
