The domain page generated and displayed the DKIM record but said only
"also configure SPF and DMARC for the domain (see the documentation)".
The concrete example existed — buried in the check's remediation text,
and only visible once the check had already failed. Show both records up
front, host and value with a Copy button, the way the DKIM record is
shown, plus the two things that actually bite: a domain may carry only
one SPF record (add the mechanism to the existing one rather than
publishing a second), and p=none is safe to publish immediately.
The SPF value names the addresses SELFPOST_HOSTNAME resolves to, taken
from the hostname check the page already runs, and falls back to an "a:"
mechanism when it does not resolve. New dnscheck.SPFExample/DMARCExample
are the single source for both the page and the checks' advice, so the
two cannot drift into recommending different records; dnscheck.Query
gains Hostname for the fallback.

Same kind of control, two appearances: a POST wrapped in form.inline
(Re-check, Export domain, Sign out, New password, Delete), the <details>
toggles in the applications table and the a.danger delete links all
rendered as bold blue/red text, while every other action was a filled
button — sometimes both within one card, as on the backup page where
"Download full backup" was text and "Import domain" right below it was a
button.
Give them one vocabulary: filled for a card's own action, and a compact
outlined variant (the style the Copy buttons already used) where actions
cluster in a table row or the nav bar. An <a> is now only used for
navigation. The <details> summary keeps the pressed background instead of
a disclosure marker, and the row buttons are nowrap so a narrow actions
column widens rather than wrapping every label onto two lines.

On the domain page the "Add an application" card sat below the domain rate
limit, so adding a login meant scrolling past the list and back. Move it up
next to the Applications table and wrap the pair in a .split grid (1.5fr /
1fr, so the table keeps the wider column). The columns collapse to one below
52rem, list first, and the grid gap keeps the same vertical rhythm as
.card + .card.
The empty-state text said "Create one below", which is no longer where the
form is; it now names the card instead of its position.

Replaces copytruncate with rename + `postfix reload` (the same mechanism
`postfix logrotate` itself uses), closing the up-to-one-second window where
copytruncate could drop in-flight delivery lines and leave a send-log row
stuck at "queued" forever.
logrotate-mail.conf keeps `create 0644 root root` rather than `nocreate` as
originally planned: verified on a live container that Postfix recreates the
file itself only lazily, on the next write after reload, and at mode 0600 —
unreadable by the unprivileged panel process. `create` hands the file back at
0644 immediately after rename, before Postfix ever touches it.
logtail.follow() re-drains the old file descriptor once more right before
switching to the rotated file, closing the residual gap between the last
poll's drain and the rotation check. readLogTail() treats a momentarily
missing mail.log as an empty screen rather than a logged error.

Sessions move from an in-memory map (absolute 12h TTL) to a `sessions`
table (migration 0002), storing only the SHA-256 of the token. Expiry is
now a sliding idle window (PANEL_SESSION_IDLE_DAYS, default 7, no
absolute cap), extended at most once an hour and never by the
monitoring screens' background polling (GET + HX-Request), so a
forgotten open tab doesn't keep a session alive indefinitely. A login
now survives a container restart or redeploy.

Phase 14.B. The cookie already satisfied everything the __Host- prefix
requires — Secure, Path=/, no Domain — but as a promise the server makes, not
one the browser enforces. With the prefix the browser refuses to store a
same-named cookie carrying a Domain attribute, which is the second lever the
same-site neighbour from 14.A has: set selfpost_session for the parent domain,
and the browser sends two cookies of that name, oldest first. r.Cookie
returned that first one, so the admin logged in successfully and landed back
on the login form, for as long as the planted cookie lived.
The name has to stay conditional: __Host- is only valid on a Secure cookie, so
with PANEL_COOKIE_SECURE=false the browser would discard the Set-Cookie and
the dev instance would fail to log in with no visible reason. Hence the test
on that branch specifically, not just the production one.
requireAuth now reads r.Cookies() and refuses a request carrying more than one
cookie of the name, with a log line naming the cause. That is the only place
the overwrite becomes visible at all, and unlike the prefix it also works in
the dev shape. Sign-out clears both names, so the upgrade does not leave the
old cookie behind; it does sign the administrator out once, which costs
nothing given sessions live in memory and die on restart anyway.

Phase 14.A, both halves of it in one middleware wrapped around the whole
router — outside requireAuth, so POST /login and POST /setup/{token} are
covered too.
Headers: CSP, X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options, Referrer-Policy, and
HSTS only where the deployment is HTTPS-only (the same CookieSecure condition
that gates the cookie's Secure attribute; on the plain-HTTP dev instance HSTS
would pin the browser to a scheme that instance does not speak). HSTS goes
without includeSubDomains on purpose: the panel may sit at an apex, and
forcing HTTPS on every unrelated subdomain of the operator's domain for a year
is not this project's call. They are emitted here rather than delegated to the
reverse proxy, so the part that is easy to get wrong lives in the service.
Origin check: this is what SameSite=Lax cannot do. SameSite is judged per site
(registrable domain), so a neighbouring host — a CMS, a forgotten staging
subdomain — is same-site and its forged POST arrives with the session cookie
attached. Sec-Fetch-Site and Origin are judged per origin and tell it apart.
For the typical deployment, where the panel is a subdomain of a domain used
for other things, that neighbour is the realistic attacker, not a theoretical
one; POST /domains/import is the case that turns a blind write into working
credentials on someone else's relay.
A request carrying neither header is still let through — the risk accepted in
the plan, since a client that old cannot be checked at all and the strict mode
would not protect it, only break the panel in it.
The check compares Origin's host against r.Host, not the full origin: the
panel speaks plain HTTP behind the proxy and does not know its own external
scheme. That makes it depend on the proxy preserving Host. All four shipped
fragments do, but one that rewrites it would turn every form submission into a
403, so the rejection logs both sides of the comparison — otherwise the
symptom reads as "the panel stopped saving anything".

Groundwork for the Content-Security-Policy of phase 14.A. A policy that has to
allow inline script is not worth writing — script-src 'unsafe-inline' gives
back exactly the XSS foothold the policy exists to remove — so the three
inline constructs the templates still had are moved out first:
- the layout's <style> block becomes /static/panel.css;
- the one style="background:#b42318" attribute becomes the .danger class
that already existed for it;
- the four onsubmit="return confirm(...)" handlers become data-confirm,
handled by a delegated listener in panel.js. Delegation matters: the
application rows are also delivered by HTMX swaps.
htmx would otherwise inject a <style> of its own for the request-indicator
classes and become the single reason the policy needs an exemption; the panel
uses no hx-indicator, so the meta config switches it off.
A guard test keeps this from silently regressing later, which it otherwise
would: an inline handler added to a template does not fail, it just quietly
stops working in the browser.

The plan is meant to hold only what is still open, but three of its numbered
items had already been implemented and were still being read as pending work:
the TRUSTED_PROXY_CIDR-gated X-Forwarded-For handling (A.1), the account
settings page (A.6) and the go vet/go test CI workflow (C.10). Remove them
and renumber; the residual scope note from A.6 (2FA, multiple admins) moves
to section D, which is where deliberately deferred scope belongs.
Same for the "done" notices at the top of the plan and the phase-by-phase
retellings in progress.md: phases 12 and 13 are described in full in the
CHANGELOG and git history, so the tracker now states what is closed and what
is next, and nothing else.
Three code comments cited plan item numbers that this renumbering would have
silently pointed at a different item, and one cited a phase 13 section that
no longer exists; they now state the fact instead of the reference. The CI
test workflow was never recorded in the CHANGELOG, so its entry is added
there before the plan item describing it goes away.

Phase 13. Two new packages and one new screen.
internal/health owns the shared status vocabulary (ok/warn/error/unknown)
and the local checks: supervisord's process table, TLS certificate expiry
and the two milter sockets. Each check reports a problem as a status rather
than an error, so one broken component costs a line and not the page.
internal/dnscheck does the read-only lookups: forward-confirmed reverse DNS
for SELFPOST_HOSTNAME, and per-domain DKIM (compared against the key this
server actually signs with), SPF and DMARC. Every check is bounded by a
timeout and cached, and the resolver sits behind an interface so the tests
drive every branch without touching the network. The SPF check is
deliberately shallow: it looks for a mechanism literally covering the
server's address and does not follow include:/redirect=, so a record that
authorises us through an include is reported as "cannot tell" rather than
as a failure.
/status renders both, with the local checks in an HTMX-polled fragment and
the DNS lookups behind a Re-check button, and becomes the panel's landing
page: / now redirects there and the domain list lives at /domains. The
Reload button moves onto /status, where it reads as what it is — a
drift-recovery for the daemons — with text explaining what it regenerates.
A template test fails on any remaining href="/" so a stale link cannot
silently land on the wrong screen.
Also fixes a defect this made visible: the panel could never read the mail
queue in the documented deployment. postqueue relies on its setgid-postdrop
bit, which the compose file's no-new-privileges disables, so the Queue
screen always said "Could not read the mail queue" — including in the
released 1.0.0 image. The panel user is now a real member of postdrop,
which needs no setgid transition.
Verified in a container on the dev server against real DNS: PTR matching
(selfpost.mixfed.ru) and not matching (mixfed.ru), DKIM absent and
mismatched, SPF absent and via include:, DMARC p=quarantine/p=reject/absent,
and a resolver timeout degrading to "unknown" without hanging the page.

Phase 12 (UI/UX). The navigation bar now renders once from layout.html
instead of being copied into each content template, so it is present on
every authenticated page — including the domain page and its delete
confirmation, which had no links at all — and the current page is
highlighted via .Active rather than quietly dropping out of the list.
New /account page changes the administrator's username and/or password:
the current password is required and the attempt is throttled on the same
limiter as the login form, so this route cannot be used to brute-force
past that limit. A password change invalidates every other session while
keeping the one performing it; a rename carries that session over.
Backup and domain import move from a card in the middle of the domain
list to their own /backup page, one card each; the handlers themselves
are unchanged, only the page the import form renders its errors on.
The domain page gains a "Sending server settings" card (server, port,
encryption) so a client can be configured without reading the docs; 587
is listed only when SUBMISSION_ENABLE is true for this deployment, which
is a deploy-time flag the panel cannot verify at runtime.
Client-side (static/panel.js, no libraries): Copy buttons on the values
that get carried elsewhere (DKIM record, new application credentials,
server name), and the Addresses field is hidden while the address mode is
wildcard, where the server ignores it.
Verified in a container on the dev server: setup, login, every page's
nav and active item, domain and application creation, all account-form
paths including cross-session invalidation, import errors, full backup
download. gofmt/vet/test/docker build green.

Resolves plan item A.1 (option б): login/setup rate-limiting used
RemoteAddr only, which behind the default reverse proxy is the proxy's own
address, making the limiter effectively global and enabling a lockout-DoS.
Now, when the request's direct peer matches the new TRUSTED_PROXY_CIDR list
(comma-separated CIDRs, env, empty by default), the last X-Forwarded-For
entry is used instead, giving a real per-client limit. Unset behaviour is
unchanged.

Full server backup (spec 7.5.A): internal/backup produces a tar.gz of all of
/data — a consistent SQLite snapshot via VACUUM INTO, DKIM keys, sasldb2 and a
version manifest; TLS certs (tls/) and the Postfix queue are excluded. Two equal
paths: the panel button (POST /backup, no-store) and the selfpost-backup CLI via
docker exec (spec 11.6). CheckRestore runs before store.Open: a manifest version
mismatch refuses to boot with the image tag to use; a match consumes the
manifest so it only guards the first post-restore boot. Restore is not a
separate branch — Postfix/OpenDKIM regenerate from the restored SQLite as on any
start.
Domain export/import (spec 7.5.B): DomainExport carries the DKIM private key and
each application's working password. SASL secrets are read from sasldb2 via
db_dump (the userPassword property is plaintext) and, on import, re-keyed under
the local realm with saslpasswd2 — so credentials keep working on an instance
with a different hostname, with no DKIM DNS change. Import validates and rolls
back atomically on any failure. db-util (db_dump) is now an explicit image dep.
Verified on the server (selfpost:p9): gofmt/vet/test green; container e2e for
cross-realm domain export/import (SMTP AUTH 235 under the new realm), CLI and
panel backups, same-version restore, and version-mismatch refusal.

The journal-milter, until now a pure monitor, now refuses a message with a
4xx tempfail (RespTempFail/451) at MAIL FROM when a per-domain or per-
application limit is exceeded. Key is the client IP; the count is
COUNT(DISTINCT queue_id) over a sliding window reusing the send log; the
limit applies only when a non-empty IP binding matches the client (empty
binding => level-1 only, per spec 7.4). Enforcement is fail-open on the
milter's own errors — a limiter malfunction never blocks mail, and Postfix's
level-1 anvil limit stays the independent backstop. Refused messages are
recorded in send_log with status "rejected" for UI visibility.
- store/ratelimits.go: RateLimit type (+Active/AllowsIP), id-keyed get/set/
delete for the panel, name/login-keyed lookup + windowed distinct-message
count for the milter, DeleteRateLimitsForDomain. No migration — the
rate_limits table has existed since Phase 2.
- milter: enforce at MailFrom, fail-open helper overLimit, InsertRejected.
- web: server-side validated IP/ceiling/window forms on the domain page and
per application; routes POST /domains/{id}/ratelimit and
/applications/{aid}/ratelimit. Milter reads rows live, so no reload.
- domain/app services clear limits on deletion (rate_limits has no FK cascade).
Unit tests + container e2e (p8) green: refusal on both scopes, unregistered
IP ignored, fail-open with the panel stopped.

Three HTMX-polled monitoring screens (spec 7.2.11-13): send log with
server-side domain/application filters and pagination, Postfix queue
(postqueue -p), and a mail.log tail. Fragment endpoints return HTML
snippets, not JSON (spec 7.1); all output is auto-escaped via
html/template (spec 7.6.7).
Adds store.QuerySendLog/CountSendLog/ListApplicationLogins,
postfix.Queue(), and logtail.TailLines (a point-in-time reverse read,
independent of the background follow loop). Verified on the dev server:
gofmt/vet/test green, docker build green, container e2e (filters,
60-row pagination, <script> escaping, real postqueue/mail.log output,
existing Reload button unaffected).

Adds application accounts bound to domains: a SASL login/password in
sasldb2, a per-application address mode (wildcard @domain or an explicit
list), and matching smtpd_sender_login_maps bindings — with create,
list, edit-mode, delete and password regeneration (spec 4.1, 5.1,
7.2.5-9). Generated passwords are shown exactly once and never stored in
plaintext (7.6.1).
- internal/store/applications.go: transactional CRUD; globally unique
login; ListBindings (address->login) as the map source; logins-by-
domain for pre-cascade SASL cleanup.
- internal/app: saslpasswd2 wrapper (password via stdin, login as a
whitelisted argv element, no shell — 7.6.3); strong base64url password;
address validation that enforces domain ownership before any config
write (7.6.2); service orchestrating store + sasldb2 + map with full
rollback on partial failure.
- internal/postfix: sender_login_maps regenerated as a pure function of
the registry (many-to-one logins merged per address), atomic write,
injection backstop (7.6.4).
- Postfix reload, corrected: `postfix start-fg` forks a separate master,
so signalling the supervised process never reaches it. Reload now runs
the canonical `postfix reload` via a one-shot supervisord program the
unprivileged panel triggers over the group control socket. Verified in
mail.log.
- domain.Service.Delete purges the domain's SASL accounts, then cascades,
then rebuilds the sender map and reloads; manual reload now covers both
OpenDKIM and Postfix.
- web: application management in the domain page, one-time credential
shown inline; postfix joins the selfpost group and entrypoint normalises
/data/sasl and /data/postfix (setgid, group-readable) with self-heal.
Verified on the dev server: gofmt/vet/test green, image builds, and a
container e2e covers the full application lifecycle, domain-delete
cascade, restart persistence, and a real postfix reload.

Add/list/delete of sending domains with per-domain DKIM keys and the
OpenDKIM tables that drive signing (spec 6, 7.2.2-4, 7.2.10).
internal/domain:
- Pure-Go RSA-2048 keygen; PKCS#1 PEM written atomically at 0640; the
published DNS TXT record is derived from the key on disk (single source
of truth) rather than persisted. No os/exec for key generation.
- KeyTable/SigningTable fully regenerated from the registry on every
add/delete (idempotent), written atomically; SigningTable via refile:
with *@domain, KeyTable with absolute key paths. Table writer refuses
any unsafe character as a backstop (spec 7.6.4).
- Reload without root: the unprivileged panel signals OpenDKIM through
supervisord (`supervisorctl signal USR1 opendkim`, fixed args, no
shell, no user input — spec 7.6.3). An existing key is reused, never
overwritten, so re-adding a domain keeps its published DNS valid.
- Service orchestrates registry -> key -> table rebuild -> reload, with
rollback of the row if a downstream step fails; delete cascades apps
via the DB FK and removes the key + table entries.
Infra:
- Shared `selfpost` group bridges panel (writes keys) and opendkim
(reads them); /data/opendkim is setgid so panel-created files inherit
the group, keys are 0640, RequireSafeKeys is disabled by design.
- opendkim.conf moves from verify-only (Mode v) to signing (Mode s).
- entrypoint.sh normalises the DKIM tree on every start (ownership,
setgid, perms, empty tables before opendkim starts) — self-healing
after a restore.
- supervisord control socket opened to the `selfpost` group so the panel
can request the reload.
web/store:
- Strict domain-name validation (whitelist [a-z0-9.-], DNS shape, >=2
labels), lower-case normalisation (spec 7.6.2).
- Domain queries with application counts; delete relies on ON DELETE
CASCADE. Dashboard lists domains + add form; domain page shows the
DKIM record; a dedicated confirm page warns about the app cascade
before deletion (spec 7.2.4); manual reload button (spec 7.2.12,
OpenDKIM side; Postfix reload lands in Phase 5).
- Authenticated routes moved to a sub-mux using Go 1.22 method/wildcard
patterns.
Tests: validateDomain, DKIM keygen/record roundtrip, table rendering +
injection-safety, key reuse, store cascade. Verified on the dev server:
gofmt/vet/test green, image builds, container e2e (add/delete a domain,
DKIM record shown, OpenDKIM reads panel keys and reloads, keys and
tables persist across a restart).
