rspamd 3.11.1's milter_headers skips its verdict routines - removes none
of the sender's X-Spamd-Result / X-Rspamd-Action, adds none - for a client
it counts as local (loopback, a unix socket, local_addrs: the private
ranges) or one that authenticated (skip_local, skip_authenticated, both on
by default; milter_headers.lua skip_wanted(), lua_ip.c lua_ip_is_local()).
The custom routine that signs X-SelfPost-Filter is never put through
skip_wanted(), so it signed the sender's own verdict, and Inbound > Log
showed it as rspamd's. Every sender is private when Docker's proxy relays
port 25 from the bridge gateway. Both options set to false.
Tried 2026-10-14 in a throwaway rspamd/rspamd:3.11.1-3 on the test server
(rspamc --ucl, a message carrying its own verdict headers): old config,
from 10.0.0.5 and as an authenticated user, the milter reply removed and
added neither and added the signature; new config, both removed and
rspamd's own added, as from 203.0.113.9.
Also: the sender rules take the envelope only (extract_from = "smtp"; by
default a bounce's From: header is used - tried: a bounce whose From:
domain is denied was refused before, is not now; a denied sender is
refused either way); the image pinned to 3.11.1-3, the build read (3.11 and
3.11.1 move with each rebuild); the prefilter lines no longer read go.
architecture.md and security.md say so. Assumptions C-R7, B-R1, C-R4,
C-R12, C-R5.

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.

Follows the design commit before it (owner's words quoted there).
The lists' tables are Value, Kind, Matched and Remove. The kind tag
opens the entry's sheet: note, day added, how often it decided a
message in the days the log keeps, and the last match.
Matches are read off the journal on each view, nothing is stored
(inbound.Lists.Usage, store.ListSpamListHits). A row counts for an
entry when the list decided the message - a rejected row whose reply is
the deny rule's message, an accepted row whose verdict carries the
allow rule's symbol for that kind - and the entry fits the row's sender
or client address the way rspamd matches it: an address whole, a domain
as the sender's domain, a network containing the client (an
IPv4-mapped address as IPv4). A failure to count shows the lists with
"never" and logs why.
For that the journal milter keeps the lists' own symbols ahead of its
six-symbol cap: rspamd writes symbols heaviest first, so an allow
entry's -100 came last and was cut behind any six others.
The plan gains "Filter list usage": what counting from the journal
implies, and - the owner asked for it in writing - the conditions under
which a counter kept with each entry becomes worth a migration (the
journal cut by its row cap and not by age; a short retention; counts
that must outlive the journal; a slow page). multimap.conf says which
of its texts SelfPost reads back.
Tests: Usage over every kind on both lists and the rows that are
nobody's; the milter's symbol order; the store query; the page and its
sheets; a handler test from journal rows to the numbers on the page.
Seen: the fixture page with a sheet open, headless Edge at 1360 px -
the same as the accepted drawing.
Checked on the test server, uncommitted tree: go vet ./... ok,
go test ./... ok (22 packages), make e2e ok.
Not seen in a real run: a count above zero. It needs an entry added in
the panel, which I cannot sign in to, and then mail that the list
decides; in particular the deny rule's message arriving in mail.log as
the reply of a milter-reject line is what the trial with rspamc showed,
not yet what Postfix logged.

Step 5/12 of docs/plans/inbound-antispam-panel.md.
Store: AddSpamListEntry, ListSpamListEntries, DeleteSpamListEntry.
internal/inbound/lists.go validates and normalises an entry - sender
address, sender domain, client address or network (canonical text, an
IPv4-mapped address as IPv4, /0 refused) - and writes the lists as six
map files under /data/antispam (ANTISPAM_DIR), each atomically, 0644 in
a 0755 directory: the filter is another user in another container. All
six are written on every change and on every start with the relay on,
empty ones included. An entry whose maps could not be written is taken
back out of the table. The writer refuses a stored value with
whitespace, a newline or # in it.
The plan's allow.map / deny.map became one file per list and entry
type: to rspamd an IP map and a sender map are different map types.
deploy/antispam/rspamd/multimap.conf holds the rules; the fragment
mounts it and ./data/antispam into the sidecar. Deny is a prefilter
reject, allow a symbol weighing -100. Tried in a throwaway rspamd 3.11
container on the test server:
- with allow as a prefilter accept, an address on both lists was
accepted and an IP on both was refused - the rule that ran first
decided; with the weight, deny won in all five mixed cases;
- IPv4, IPv6, address (any case), domain (not its subdomains) match;
- a rewritten file is reread in about ten seconds, no restart;
- files that appear after rspamd started are loaded the same way.
No page edits the lists yet (step 6).
Checked on the test server, uncommitted tree: go vet ./... ok,
go test ./... ok (22 packages), make e2e ok - with the relay on
/data/antispam is 755 and holds the six maps, 644, empty.
