Security audit 2026-10-17, findings W6/M9 (low), stage 4. Every
application, upstream, recipient or report-address save reloaded Postfix
through supervisord, and POST .../dns-recheck bypassed the five-minute
cache for up to ~14 resolver queries - both at whatever rate an
authenticated user pressed.
- writeChanged: each generated map is written only when its content
differs from the file on disk, and Postfix is reloaded only when one was
(sender map, inbound maps, DMARC maps). Health's Reload configuration
ends with an explicit reload (app.Service.ReloadPostfix, SenderMaps
gains Reload), so it still re-reads whatever is on disk. No debounce:
with unchanged saves gone, a burst is real changes Postfix must see.
- auth.AllowDNSRecheck: twenty forced re-checks in 15 minutes per user;
past that the outbound, inbound and settings re-check show the cached
result without the "re-checked" flash, and the log says why.
Tests: TestARebuildThatChangesNothingDoesNotReload,
TestDNSRechecksArePerUser; the fakes gain Reload. Docs: guide § Overview
and Health; CHANGELOG; plan.

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.

Comments only, no behaviour changed. go-milter v0.4.1 (session.go: one
session per connection, replaced after a non-continue reply; macros per
stage), Postfix 3.7.11 (milter8.c, smtpd_check.c
reject_auth_sender_login_mismatch(), mail_addr_find.c, showq_compat.c,
mail_conf_time.c, mail_params.h), Cyrus SASL 2.1.28 (saslpasswd.c,
plugins/sasldb.c: deleting a missing login is not an error), OpenDKIM
2.11.0~beta2 (opendkim-db.c, opendkim-genkey), Berkeley DB 5.3 db_dump,
rspamd 3.11.0. Comments that claimed what the source denies are corrected
(sasldb keeps the password as given, not hashed; an embedded newline is
kept, not truncated; rspamd sorts symbols by absolute weight); fixtures say
seen or composed. The sender check's From: parsing gets no citations: it is
replaced by the port of OpenDKIM's dkim_mail_parse next.
Contradictions left for their own commits: B-G5 cleanAddress, B-PS1 first
key wins, B-PQ1 the forced-expire flag, B-PQ10/PQ11 Postfix's time units.

Optional DMARC aggregate report ingest: accept `rua=` mail on port 25, parse gzip/XML into SQLite, and show summaries in the panel.
Added:
- Optional DMARC aggregate report ingest (`DMARC_REPORTS_ENABLE`): port 25
- Per-domain **SelfPost hosted** `rua=` mode when ingest is enabled
Full detail: CHANGELOG.md (1.7.0).
