# Changelog All notable changes to this project are documented here. Format follows [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.1.0/); versioning follows [SemVer](https://semver.org/). ## [Unreleased] ## [0.2.0] - 2026-08-03 - panel: every authenticated page now ends with the running version (`SelfPost 0.2.0`) in a small footer. It is the value a backup manifest is checked against on restore, and the first thing to establish when the panel behaves unexpectedly. The login and setup pages deliberately do not show it. - panel: the domain page now shows the **SPF and DMARC records it expects**, with host, value and a Copy button, next to the DKIM record it already showed — previously it only said "also configure SPF and DMARC (see the documentation)" and the concrete example appeared only once a check had already failed. The SPF value names the addresses this server's hostname resolves to (falling back to an `a:` mechanism if it does not resolve), and the DNS checks below build their remediation advice from the same source, so the page and its checks cannot recommend different records. - panel: one appearance for actions. Several controls — a POST wrapped in an inline form (Re-check, Export domain, Sign out, New password…), the `
` toggles in the applications table, the delete links — used to render as bold blue text while everything else was a button, so the same kind of control looked like two different things, sometimes within one card. They are all buttons now: filled for a card's own action, compact and outlined where actions cluster in a table row or the nav bar. The two actions that are really navigations — "Delete domain" and the status page's "Full queue" — are anchors carrying the same button styling. A bare link is left only where it reads as part of a sentence, a table cell or the nav. - panel: on the domain page **Add an application** now sits directly above the **Applications** list — the same order the domains page uses for its own add form — instead of being stranded below the domain rate limit. - ci: hermetic container e2e suite (`test/e2e`, a separate Go module) gates image publishing — `make e2e` locally, and `go test ./...` in `test/e2e` as a required step in `release.yml` before a version tag's image is pushed. It builds the real image, brings up the shipped `deploy/docker-compose.yml` plus a test-only override (self-signed cert, low ports, a fake DNS zone served by CoreDNS, a `smtp-sink` sink-MX) on an isolated compose project, then drives the panel over HTTP exactly like an administrator: setup → login → add a domain → publish the DKIM record it prints into the fake zone → add an application → send over SMTP AUTH → verify the delivered message's DKIM signature against the record the panel published → poll the send log to `sent`. Negative coverage: no-AUTH and unauthenticated-relay rejection, sender/login mismatch, the level-1 (anvil) and level-2 (panel-configured) rate limits, the journal-milter's fail-open behaviour when the panel process is stopped, a missing/malformed `SELFPOST_HOSTNAME` failing the container fast, and a login session surviving `docker restart`. `release.yml` moved off qemu to a native per-architecture build (`ubuntu-latest` / `ubuntu-24.04-arm`), each gated by this suite before its tag is pushed and merged into the version manifest — running the full Postfix/OpenDKIM stack under emulation for the gate was impractically slow. - ops: `mail.log` rotation switched from `copytruncate` to rename + `postfix reload` (the same mechanism `postfix logrotate` itself uses), eliminating the up-to-one-second window in which `copytruncate` could drop in-flight delivery lines — a lost line meant a send-log row stuck at `queued` forever. `logrotate-mail.conf` keeps `create 0644 root root` rather than `nocreate`: verified on a live container that letting Postfix recreate the file itself on reload produces `0600`, which the unprivileged panel process cannot read, breaking the mail-log view until the next restart. The panel's log-tailer (`internal/logtail`) re-drains the old file descriptor once more right before switching to the rotated one, closing a similar small window between polls; a missing `mail.log` right after rotation is now a normal empty screen rather than a logged error. - panel: login sessions now persist in SQLite instead of memory, so an administrator's login survives a container restart or redeploy. Only the SHA-256 of the session token is stored, never the token itself. The absolute 12-hour TTL is replaced by a **sliding idle timeout** (`PANEL_SESSION_IDLE_DAYS`, default 7 days, no absolute cap): the monitoring screens' background polling does not count as activity, so a forgotten open tab does not keep a session alive forever. Changing the password still signs out every other session. - panel: security headers on every response — `Content-Security-Policy`, `X-Content-Type-Options`, `X-Frame-Options`, `Referrer-Policy`, and `Strict-Transport-Security` where the deployment is HTTPS-only. They are emitted by the panel itself, so the reverse proxy still needs no security configuration of its own. - panel: state-changing requests are now checked against the panel's own origin (`Sec-Fetch-Site`, falling back to `Origin` vs `Host`). This closes cross-site request forgery from a *neighbouring host on the same domain* — a CMS or a forgotten staging subdomain next to the panel — which the session cookie's `SameSite=Lax` counts as same-site and therefore cannot stop. A request that sends neither header is still let through, so genuinely ancient browsers keep working. **The reverse proxy must pass the original `Host` header through** (every shipped fragment already does); one that rewrites it makes the panel refuse every form submission, and the log line names both the `Origin` and the `Host` it compared. - panel: the session cookie is now named `__Host-selfpost_session` wherever it is `Secure` (the standard deployment), which makes the browser enforce that no other host can set or overwrite it. **Upgrading signs the administrator out once.** With `PANEL_COOKIE_SECURE=false` the old name is kept, because the prefix is invalid without TLS. Signing out clears both names. - panel: if a request arrives with two cookies of the session cookie's name — what a neighbouring host does when it overwrites the session — the request counts as signed out and the log says so, instead of the panel silently picking the other host's value and looping back to the login form forever. - panel: the layout's stylesheet moved to `/static/panel.css` and the confirmation prompts on destructive buttons moved into `/static/panel.js`. No visible change; the panel's CSP allows no inline script or style, and this is what keeps that policy free of exemptions. - docs: the first-run setup link is also written to `/data/setup-token` (`0600`) — documented in the README as the way to read it without the token passing through a container-log pipeline. - panel: new **Status** page — supervised processes, mail queue, TLS certificate expiry, milter sockets and the server's own hostname/reverse-DNS (FCrDNS) check — and it is now the panel's landing page. The local checks refresh by polling; the DNS lookup is cached with a *Re-check* button. - panel: the domain page shows a **DNS status** card: the published DKIM record compared against the key this server actually signs with, plus SPF and DMARC. The SPF check is deliberately shallow — it looks for a mechanism literally covering this server's address and does not follow `include:`/`redirect=`, so a record that authorises the server through an include is reported as "cannot tell", not as a failure. - panel: the domain list moved from `/` to `/domains`; `/` redirects to the status page. The **Reload** button moved from the domain list to the status page and now explains what it regenerates and when to use it. - fix: the panel could never read the mail queue in the documented deployment. `postqueue` relies on its setgid-`postdrop` bit, which `no-new-privileges` (set in the shipped compose file) disables, so the *Queue* screen always said "Could not read the mail queue". The `panel` user is now a real member of `postdrop`. - panel: navigation bar is now rendered once from the shared layout, so every authenticated page has it — including the domain page and the delete confirmation, which had no navigation links at all — and the current page is highlighted instead of silently missing from the list. - panel: new *Account* page to change the administrator's username and/or password (the current password is required, throttled on the same limiter as the login form). Changing the password invalidates all other sessions. - panel: *Backup & migration* moved off the domain list onto its own *Backup* page, with the full backup and the domain import as two separate cards. - panel: the domain page now shows the *Sending server settings* (server, port and encryption) needed to configure a mail client; port 587 is listed only when `SUBMISSION_ENABLE=true` for this deployment. - panel: *Copy* buttons on the DKIM record, on a newly issued application login/password and on the sending server name. - panel: the *Addresses* field is hidden while an application's address mode is *Any address of the domain*, where the server ignores it. - ci: disable provenance attestation on release image push, so the ghcr.io manifest list shows only `linux/amd64`/`linux/arm64` (no `unknown/unknown`). - ci: run `go vet` and `go test ./...` on every push to `main` and every pull request, not only the image build on a release tag. - security: optionally honour `X-Forwarded-For` for login/setup rate-limiting when the request's direct peer is in the new `TRUSTED_PROXY_CIDR` list, giving real per-client limits behind a reverse proxy instead of one global bucket. Unset by default (unchanged `RemoteAddr`-only behaviour). ## [0.1.0] - 2026-07-15 Initial feature-complete implementation of the v1.0 specification (phases 0-11 of `docs/implementation-plan.md`). ### Added - Panel (Go, single static binary) with SQLite persistence, one-time crypto-random setup link, bcrypt admin auth, session cookies. - Domain management with per-domain DKIM (RSA-2048, generated in pure Go) and OpenDKIM KeyTable/SigningTable regeneration + privilege-safe reload. - Application (sender identity) management: SASL credentials via `sasldb2`, `smtpd_sender_login_maps` enforcing sender/domain ownership, no open relay. - Full Postfix relay config generated from env at container start: SMTPS 465, optional STARTTLS submission 587, SASL auth, TLS for outbound delivery, anvil-based rate limiting (level 1). - Journal milter (pure Go, `go-milter`) recording every send to `send_log`; fail-open by design so a milter fault never blocks mail. - Monitoring UI: send log, Postfix queue, and mail.log tail, all HTMX-polling, HTML-escaped. - Per-domain/per-application sending rate limit (level 2), enforced in the journal milter at `MAIL FROM`, fail-open on the limiter's own errors. - Full backup/restore (`tar.gz` of `/data`, consistent SQLite snapshot via `VACUUM INTO`) with a version guard that refuses to start on a manifest/binary version mismatch. Per-domain export/import for moving a single domain between hosts without re-issuing DNS records. - Deployment: Docker image + compose, reverse-proxy fragments for Apache (default), nginx, Caddy, and Traefik; CI workflow publishing tagged, multi-arch images to `ghcr.io` on `vX.Y.Z` tags. - Security pass against spec 7.6 (exec safety, config-write sanitization, server-side validation, rate limiting, session/cookie hardening, output escaping, non-root panel) — full compliance, no code changes required. - Live production deployment on `selfpost.example.com` with a real Let's Encrypt certificate; end-to-end delivery confirmed (DKIM pass, SPF pass).
