mixandClaude Opus 5.5 e166a2ebd6 refused messages: the page shows what Postfix wrote (stage 2b, 0009)
The Delivery log box of every refused row said "This message never reached
the queue, so Postfix wrote no delivery lines for it" - untrue: Postfix
wrote a line for each. The owner, 2026-10-13: the box is required on every
message page. Pictured for him first (dev/shots, the refused variant of
out-message: wrong From with its queue id lines, rate-limited with the
NOQUEUE line); the variant has no mockup screen of its own - the guard ties
screens to pages, and its outline is out-message's.

- Wrong From: cleanup gives the message a queue id before the headers are
  judged; the sender check reads {i} at end-of-headers and writes it on the
  refused row. Its lines - stored under the id like any other's - are on the
  page, but only those from 10 minutes before to 1 minute after the refusal
  (store.SendLogLines for a rejected row): Postfix frees the id at once, and
  a later message with it lends nothing. No mail.log fallback for a refused
  row, for the same reason.
- Rate-limited and wrong client: refused at MAIL FROM, no queue id. Migration
  0009 adds send_log.refusal_line; logtail.refusalLines matches smtpd's
  "NOQUEUE: milter-reject: MAIL from ...; from=<...>" (not port 25's, not
  CONNECT/EHLO) and store.AttachRefusalLine puts it on the newest refused row
  of that sender (and login, when the line names it) within two minutes; a
  line whose row is not written yet waits up to 30 s (retried at each pass).
- The page: the queue id fact says "given, the message was not queued" or
  "none - refused at MAIL FROM, before one is given"; the box's caption is
  "The line from mail.log for this refusal" for the latter; a row from
  before says the line was not kept. LogLineLevel colours a refusal by its
  reply: 5xx red, 4xx amber (IPv6 clients included). The id in the fact is
  not muted as in the picture: the kit has no muted inline.

Tests: store (attach by sender, login, time; not a queued row, not one an
hour off; a refused row's lines are its own minutes); logtail (attach, wait
and retry, port 25 and other lines ignored); milter (the refused row carries
{i}); view (facts, caption, line levels); handlers (the line on the page,
the sentence without it). e2e refusals_show_postfixs_line: a client-address
refusal made there, and the pages of a wrong From, a rate-limited and a
wrong client refusal each show Postfix's line.

schema-migrations row 9, CHANGELOG [Unreleased], audit plan line ticked,
roadmap 25/62.
Evidence on the test server for this tree: make e2e exit 0 (the new case
in 5.4 s); go test ./... ok but for two schema tests, fixed after the run
(the schema at 0009) - store tests ok locally; the full run follows before
the push.

mixandClaude Opus 5.5 a618ffb0e4 send log: rows belong to a domain by id (audit L12, 0008)
A domain user's log, the message page, a domain's statistics, the level-2
count and the notifier's refusal count picked send-log rows by domain name,
so a domain deleted and re-added under its old name showed its earlier mail
to the next assignee and went on counting it.

Migration 0008 (not run on the live database yet, so extended here):
send_log.domain_id and inbound_spam_log.inbound_domain_id, REFERENCES ...
ON DELETE SET NULL, filled once by name from the registry as it is at
migration time, each with an (id, created_at) index.

- Writes: InsertQueued / InsertRejected set domain_id to the domain of the
  row's login (loginDomainID) - the journal milter and the sender check's
  refusal rows both go through them; the inbound journal sets
  inbound_domain_id from the inbound domain's name at insert.
- Reads: SendLogFilter.DomainIDs (was Domains, by name) and
  InboundSpamFilter.DomainIDs are the scope; the global role still reads
  everything. The message page checks row.DomainID against the user's
  domains. DomainSendStats and CountMessages keep their name argument and
  select domain_id = (SELECT id FROM domains WHERE name = ?). The notifier
  joins send_log.domain_id to the domain and its application.
- DMARC reports stay by name on purpose (a report is about the DNS name).

Tests: store - scope by ids; a re-added domain's log, level-2 count and
statistics hold its own row only, the global log both; inbound scope by
ids. Handlers - the new assignee gets 404 for the old row's page and does
not see it in the log, the global role sees both. Tests that wrote rows for
a login that is no application now register it (a row is a domain's through
its application). Schema at 0008 with the two columns and indexes.

Evidence: go vet ./... clean; go test ./... ok locally but for the two
Windows-only tests; the server run follows before the push.

mixandClaude Opus 5.5 60c7b85f84 findings of the reviews of audit stage 1
test / test (push) Canceled after 0s
Technical review (Opus) and security review (Fable) of 9efc9c7..a59e3d4;
reports in the session's scratchpad. Fixed:

- B1 (verified bug): store.UpdateStatus read before writing in its
  transaction; a commit by another connection in between (the dmarc-ingest
  process opens the same file) failed it at once with "database is locked"
  and the delivery line was lost. The first statement is now a write.
- R3: a delivery line updated every row of its queue id and recipient; it
  now updates only the newest (Postfix reuses short ids). The sweep closes
  by row id (QueuedDelivery.ID, CloseUnreported(id)).
- R4: a contradicted sweep keeps a mark, reason "reconcile-contradicted",
  instead of losing which row it was.
- R1: contradicted cannot see a lost line (never read late). New counter
  reconcile_missed: at close, the sweep looks for the row's delivery line
  in mail.log and mail.log.1 (QueueLines). 0007 edited - it has run on no
  database but throwaway stands.
- R2: queued_over_lifetime cannot measure "what removing the sweep would
  leave" while the sweep runs; its text now says rows stuck despite the
  sweep, and the rule uses closed - missed - contradicted.
- cert-reload (R5, R6, R7, security medium/low): both files copied to .new
  and the copies checked as a pair before both are renamed; acts on the copy
  only when postconf says Postfix reads it; a failed reload is retried next
  pass; umask 077; says so when the mounted files cannot be read. The e2e
  case asserts Postfix reads the copy, the copy equals the mount, the key is
  600 root.
- Security low: a recipient with a quoted local part - the journal cut
  "a b"@x at the space, deliveryRe cut "a>b"@x at the ">" - matched no
  delivery line and was closed by the sweep. cleanAddress ends a bracketed
  address at the first ">" outside quotes; deliveryRe takes the recipient
  up to the ">, " before relay= (test fixtures given the relay= every real
  delivery line has).
- Security low: postqueue -p's error carries at most 512 bytes of output.
- Nits: addDeliveryLogDay refuses a column not on its list; the truncation
  test checks its message.
- To stage 2b (page wording, mockup-first): the history step of a bounced
  row says the receiving server refused it, false for a row the sweep
  closed. To the owner when stage 2b is reached: since M13 the "deferred"
  figure counts whole messages too, which "Connections turned away" would
  not name.

Found while verifying: the e2e's main positive path failed once with "553
not owned by user app1" - an smtpd idle from before the panel's reload took
the connection in the reload's second. Measured on the stand (one-off
probe, not committed): sending 0, 10, 40, 110 s after the save (two seconds
at the soonest) always met an smtpd started after the reload. The e2e now
waits for the sender map after each application it creates
(waitForSenderMap: AUTH, MAIL, RCPT, RSET - no message, no row), and the
level-1 case uses it instead of its own loop.

Docs: architecture § Queue reconcile, schema-migrations (rows 7 and 8,
chain head 8), CHANGELOG, audit plan (stage 1 note, the measured window,
a new stage 2b line: 62 lines), roadmap 15/62.

Evidence on the test server for this tree: go vet clean, go test ./... 23
packages ok, make e2e exit 0 (renewed certificate, hung panel, level 1 at
49/60).

mixandClaude Opus 5.5 ffefa9d6df delivery log: measure the sweep before deciding its fate (audit H3, 0007)
Migration 0007 (DDL only): delivery_log_days, a row per UTC day, kept a
year, shown nowhere - read off a copy of the database after a month by the
decision rule written in the audit plan.

- reconcile_closed: the sweep adds the rows it actually closed.
- reconcile_contradicted: store.UpdateStatus, in one transaction, counts the
  rows with reason "reconcile" a delivery line now speaks of, writes the
  log's status and clears the reason - so a re-read line counts once.
- tailer_blind_seconds: follow() tracks stretches in which the file is gone
  or reopening fails (logtail.blindness); stored when a stretch ends and
  every minute while it lasts; under 3 s not counted (the rotation's tick
  between rename and create loses nothing).
- queued_over_lifetime: every sweep overwrites the day's level with the rows
  queued past LongestLifetime + MaximalBackoff (a message Postfix still
  works on stays queued until its first retry after the lifetime).
- retentionLoop prunes days older than a year.

Tests: store (sums per day, the level overwritten, under a second nothing,
prune; a contradicted sweep counted once and its reason cleared; count of
queued rows); logtail (the sweep counts what it closed; countStuck records
the level; blindness - a one-tick gap not counted, 75 s stored as 60 + 15
from where the last part ended). Schema tests at user_version 7.

schema-migrations.md: chain head 7 (it still said 5 since 2.4.0), row 7.

mixandClaude Opus 5.5 9adb44845c logtail: the sweep closes only queued rows, with reason "reconcile" (audit H3)
reconcile() closed a row through UpdateStatus (WHERE queue_id AND to_addr),
which could overwrite a "sent" the tailer wrote between the listing and the
close, and rewrite an old row of a reused queue id. store.CloseUnreported
sets status bounced and reason "reconcile" (store.ReasonReconcile; the
0006 column, no schema change) WHERE ... AND status = 'queued'; the sweep
counts rows actually closed.

Tests: store - a queued row is closed with the reason, a sent row is left
alone (0 rows); logtail - the sweep's close goes through CloseUnreported.

mixandClaude Opus 5.5 c171fb5bc7 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.
