C-A1, C-Q4, D-guide:258, :291, :722. certbot's live/<host>/*.pem are
relative links into ../../archive/<host>/ (eff-certbot docs, "Where are
my certificates?": point a server at them "or create symlinks"). The
guide had `ln -s /etc/letsencrypt/live/<host> certs` and the nginx
fragment mounted live/<host> alone: inside the container the links led
into a directory it did not have - postfix-config.sh's [ -f ] false, no
copy, Postfix without a certificate - and the panel's backup, reading
certs/ through /selfpost-deploy, skipped links silently.
Now certs/fullchain.pem and certs/privkey.pem are links to
/etc/letsencrypt/live/<host>/, and /etc/letsencrypt is mounted read-only
at the same path: a commented line in deploy/docker-compose.yml for the
Apache scenario, mounted in the nginx fragment (./nginx/certbot-etc). The
guide's steps add certbot's own commands for a server that is not root -
chmod 0755 live archive, chgrp 998 + chmod 0640 the key, which certbot
keeps on renewal - so the panel reads them (Health, backup). Postfix's
side follows links already ([ -f ], cp, cmp, openssl). The vhost comment
says the same. The backup table: links are followed by the panel's
backup; a stopped tar stores them as links unless -h (GNU tar).
internal/backup: addTree follows, for certs/ only, a link to a regular
file and archives that file under the link's name; a link to nothing
reachable is an error naming it and the mount.
Tests: TestCertsLinksAreFollowed (certs/ -> live/ -> archive/, the
archive holds the files; the tree gone, Check names the dangling link;
Linux). Stand (2026-10-15, make e2e, exit 0): the stand mounts
./letsencrypt at /etc/letsencrypt; new certbot_layout_followed puts a new
pair into letsencrypt/archive/, relative links in live/, absolute links
in certs/, recreates the container: 465 serves the new serial, Health
names no renewal waiting, and the full backup holds certs/*.pem as
regular files with the archive's bytes. go vet and go test ./... pass on
the server (24 packages); the Linux-only tests of this session run there
and pass.

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.

Review pass over `1.4.0`…`1.9.1`: port 25 no longer shares the submission milter chain, DMARC reports are validated before they are stored, and the auto rate limit is correct for a non-default level-1 window. Schema migration `0010` (index only). Upgrading is a tag bump.
Added:
- SQLite migration `0010_send_log_app_login_index.sql` —
- DMARC aggregate reports are accepted as **zip** as well as gzip or plain XML
- e2e: `checkPort25ConfigCombinations` regenerates the Postfix configuration
Changed:

Fixed:
- The setup account's password is hashed at bcrypt cost `12` like every other
- Login/setup rate limiter: protecting blocked buckets from eviction is now
- `postqueue -p` output is bounded to 4 MiB (the timeout alone left the size of

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:
- test (e2e): send-log status scrapers follow the badge markup in
- security (panel): the Deliveries list is scoped to a domain administrator's
- mail (level-2 rate limit): the ceiling is no longer overshot by messages that
- panel (sign-in): a session that cannot be written to the database no longer
- panel (applications): deleting an application removes its SASL credentials

[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,
- docs: **Implementation checklists** with model routing in
- docs: roadmap candidates **send-log-retention** (panel Settings for delivery
- Postfix queue under `/data/postfix/queue` — deferred and active mail survive
