panel-dkim-signing stage 2: OpenDKIM removed
test / test (push) Canceled after 0s
The panel's signer is the only one. Gone: the opendkim package and its
configuration, the syslog-relay and opendkim programs, /dev/log and
/run/opendkim, the reload by USR1 through supervisord
(internal/supervisor/supervisor.go), internal/syslogrelay, the port of
OpenDKIM's From: parser (internal/milter/mailparse.go and its probe,
harness and test/upstream scripts), OPENDKIM_SOCKET and OPENDKIM_DIR.
Keys: internal/domain/keys.go (Keys, NewKeys, DKIM_DIR=/data/dkim) keeps
the keys and writes a selector table, /data/dkim/selectors ("<name>
<selector>"), which the signer reads in place of the KeyTable - it reads
no database, as the sender check reads none. The table is written before
the signer serves (EnsureServerSigned moved there from the notifier).
Keys and table 0600, directories 0700, the panel's. The entrypoint copies
/data/opendkim/keys once, as the panel user, into /data/dkim.new renamed
when whole, and stops the start if the copy fails; /data/opendkim is left
for a rollback to 2.7.x.
Sender check: one RFC 5322 address as a mail program reads it, held
against the bindings; the 256-byte refusal and the texts naming OpenDKIM
go. Allowed() folded the domain through strings.ToLower, which makes the
Kelvin sign a "k" - the comparison with OpenDKIM's reading had hidden it;
it folds ASCII only now.
Health: two dkim-signer rows (applications, notifications) in Milter
sockets, opendkim out of the liveness set; the card no longer takes any
row with a note for the spam filter. Texts as in the design commit.
KILL stays in deploy/docker-compose.yml: measured on the test server,
root without it cannot signal a process of another uid - supervisord
stopping the panel, Postfix's master its children. The plan's "only use
was the reload" was wrong; the comment now gives the real uses.
e2e: one signature, the panel's, verified by dkimpy; the /data/dkim modes;
the OpenDKIM log and process checks, testNeverSignedForAnother and the
cited opendkim, libopendkim11 and libmilter1.0.1 go.

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.

sender check: From: read with OpenDKIM's own parser; L8 closed
test / test (push) Canceled after 0s
Audit 2026-10-12, stage 2c, the owner's decision of 2026-10-14: the check
decides by the address OpenDKIM signs for, whatever a display name or a
comment holds.
internal/milter/mailparse.go ports libopendkim's dkim_mail_parse() with
dkim_mail_first_special(), dkim_mail_token() and
dkim_mail_matching_paren() from Debian's opendkim 2.11.0~beta2-8+deb12u1,
line for line: the '<' form, group and list punctuation, an '@' before the
first ':', ';' or ',' deciding where the address starts, source routes
dropped, quoted strings and domain literals kept with their delimiters,
comments skipped, whitespace between atoms one space, no encoded word
decoded; and the C's own quirks ("@d" gives d as the local part too).
testdata/mailparse_harness.c compiles the C from the image's source; the
test feeds it and the port 200 019 lines (the hand-written cases and
200 000 random ones over the specials) - 93 443 parse and agree byte for
byte, 106 576 fail and agree on the error (on an error the C leaves its
in-place result unterminated, and OpenDKIM uses neither part then).
judge(): one From: field and one address stay required (moreAfter: only
list or group punctuation may follow); what OpenDKIM cannot read is
refused (mlfi_eoh() would not sign it); the address is lower-cased in
ASCII only, as dkimf_lowercase() and Postfix's tables do. Found reading
dkimf_apply_signtable(): OpenDKIM matches its refile SigningTable against
"user@domain" printed into MAXADDRESS + 1 = 257 bytes, so a longer address
is matched cut short - a quoted local part padded to end there in
"@another.tenant" would be signed with that tenant's key while its real
domain is the application's. Such an address (over 256 bytes) is refused;
one that fits is matched whole. The display-name and comment scan, the
"one @ outside quotes" rule and the SigningTable reader (Signers) go; the
check asks for header values with their leading space as OpenDKIM does
(OptHeaderLeadingSpace; Postfix keeps a v2 milter's event mask, milter8.c
milter8_negotiate()).
L8 closed: refused or passed no longer depends on other domains of the
server; security.md's accepted risk is struck. The shared other-sender
lines are now held to "never signed for the other sender": unit test (a
passed line is read at the application's domain) and e2e (a passed line
arrives signed for the application's domain, none for the other).

supervision as supervisord does it: Postfix stopped, give-ups FATAL, reload's exit read
test / test (push) Canceled after 0s
C-P42. postfix-script's start-fg runs master as its child and master calls setsid() (Postfix 3.7.11, conf/postfix-script; src/master/master.c); supervisord signals the pid alone (supervisor 4.2.5, process.py, Subprocess.kill()). A stop of program postfix left master running - a restart then found "already running" - and a container stop cut Postfix off with SIGKILL. The wrapper now stays the parent of "postfix start-fg" and on TERM/INT runs "postfix stop", asking again while start-fg is still in its checks (master -t). stopwaitsecs=15. C-V6. The wrapper's give-up on the milter sockets came after the default startsecs, so it was EXITED and restarted for ever. startsecs is now MILTER_WAIT_TIMEOUT + 10, exported by the entrypoint as POSTFIX_STARTSECS and expanded by supervisord (options.py, processes_from_section(); a non-number MILTER_WAIT_TIMEOUT stops the start): a give-up is "Exited too quickly", BACKOFF, FATAL after startretries, crashexit. For those seconds after each start the program is STARTING (the healthcheck's 90 s start period covers it; the sender check counts no downtime then). C-V5. logrotate had startsecs=0, so a refused config restarted it every second for ever. startsecs=1: FATAL after startretries; crashexit reads the event's processname and leaves logrotate's FATAL on Server > Health. B-U2. "supervisorctl start" returns when a startsecs=0 program is RUNNING, not when it ends, and mapped "already started" to success. The panel now speaks supervisord's XML-RPC itself (internal/supervisor, RunOnce): startProcess without waiting, getProcessInfo until it leaves STARTING/RUNNING, exitstatus 0 or an error; a run in progress is waited out and one of its own follows. A failed reload while program postfix is not RUNNING is logged, not an error: the next master reads the files. C-V10: postfix-reload rests EXITED after a run; the e2e process check takes STOPPED or EXITED. C-P34: the dead "postfix set-permissions" branch goes - postfix check's create-missing builds the queue tree. Stand (2026-10-14, make e2e, exit 0; MILTER_WAIT_TIMEOUT=10 on the stand): new supervision_stops_postfix_and_gives_up - supervisorctl restart postfix writes postfix-script's "stopping the Postfix mail system" and leaves one master; with the panel's sockets removed, start answers "postfix: ERROR (spawn error)" (finish() sets spawnerr "Exited too quickly", onwait() reads it first) and Postfix comes up once the panel is back; a group-writable logrotate config ends FATAL with the container up; the panel's Reload configuration answers only after mail.log has "refreshing the Postfix mail system", postfix-reload EXITED. session_survives_restart sees the stop line for the container's restart. Measured: master's own "terminating on signal 15" never reaches mail.log (master TERMs its group, postlogd included, before it logs). go vet and go test ./... pass on the server (24 packages; new unit tests of RunOnce against a fake supervisord).

logtail, health, panel: cite the source of what they rely on (assumptions part A)
Comments only, no behaviour changed. Each place the log tailer, Health and cmd/panel rely on another program now says where that is written, for the version the image runs: Postfix 3.7.11 (log_adhoc(), msg_logger_print(), smtpd_whatsup(), cleanup_milter.c, qmgr_active.c, postlogd.c, showq.c, pipe.c), logrotate 3.21.0, supervisor 4.2.5, proc(5). Measurements stay measurements and say where and when; test fixtures say whether they were seen or composed. Where the source contradicts the code the comment does not bless it but names the register entry (A-8 expiry, A-12 the ISO stamp no Postfix writes, A-15 the last recipient, A-21/A-23 sasl_username, A-33 postlogd's old inode, A-38 a socket file is not a listener, A-65 the certificate served); those are fixed in their own commits.

findings of the reviews of audit stage 2b
Technical review (Opus) and security review (Fable) of 5be109b..5154bba;
reports in the session's scratchpad. Nothing above low from security; one
bug and three risks from the technical review. Migration 0009 is not
deployed, so it was extended.
- Bug: two refusals of one second swapped their NOQUEUE lines (each line
went to the newest lineless row). AttachRefusalLine now matches the
client address too (send_log.client_ip, written by the journal milter -
Postfix's line names the client and the sender, never the login: the
sasl_username part of the pattern never matched and could be fed by HELO,
security F1/F2), takes the nearest row in time and the oldest of equals,
and a line already on a row goes on no other (security F6).
- Waiting lines and recoveries lived only in memory while the saved offset
moved past them: a stop within 30 s lost them. The tracker now never saves
an offset past the oldest waiting item in its file (tracker.hold,
refusalLines.oldest) - for a recovery, the client= line that names its
login - so they are read again; the "once" guards make that harmless.
- A recovered row whose login the tailer did not see was nobody's: its
domain_id falls back to the envelope domain's.
- The fingerprint's file identity is the inode alone: the device number can
change across a host reboot and make the same log look rotated.
- A refused row carries its queue id; UpdateStatus's "newest row" now skips
refused rows, so a later message with that id does not flip it to sent.
- The alive mark: its age is read first and kept from then on, so asking
supervisord for 30 s cannot make it stale; the entrypoint removes it with
the sockets - a container restart is not the check's downtime, and a mark
from before would have counted the whole outage as "≈".
- Security F3: the sender check prints no ";" of the client's in the From:
text of its reply, and the tailer reads the envelope after the first ";"
- Postfix's own text.
- A refused row with a queue id and no stored lines says so (it was told the
mail.log text of 2.2.0); the fact's em dash is the house hyphen.
- Docs: architecture (client address, no login), guide § Health (warns on
either count), help topics log and sender-check (design

from-header-binding: what the reviews had left as found, and address extensions
test / test (push) Canceled after 0s
The owner on the three things the reviews' commit left as found: can they be fixed? They can. - Downtime that crossed a UTC midnight was all booked on the day of the restart: it is cut at the midnights between (byDay). - A message with the null envelope sender - a bounce an application writes itself - left a refusal row without a domain, which no domain administrator would see: the row takes the domain the login is bound to. - A log read again after an unclean stop counted its deferrals again: while the tailer catches up, a warning no later than the last one counted is passed over. The mark is kept to the fraction of a second the log gives. And on the check being stricter than Postfix for an address with an extension (invoices+x@ passed in the envelope, was refused in the header): it makes Postfix's second try now, the address without its extension. recipient_delimiter was the distribution's default; it is set in postfix-config.sh, since the check depends on it. e2e sends one through. Test server, this tree: go vet ok, go test 23 packages ok, make e2e ok (339 s). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

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.
