mixandClaude Opus 5.5 242515c305 audit 3: backup CLI, envelope budget, directory sync, docs; findings of the reviews
Steps 3-6 of stage 3 and what the two reviews found in steps 1-6, in one
commit: the review fixes sit in the same hunks.

Step 3, CLI backup (M3, M5, L1, L2; L4 of the stage's list):
- backup.snapshotDB refuses a database that is not there and opens the
  source mode=ro (measured: mode=ro creates no file).
- selfpost-backup holds an encrypting password to
  validate.MinSecretFilePasswordLen; -o of both directions writes a
  temporary file beside the name and renames it whole; -decrypt peeks the
  first chunk (password and type authenticated) before the output exists.
- what a backup leaves out (a link under data/, a link under certs/ to a
  directory, a socket...) is told to OnWarn; certs/ with no file is
  backup.ErrNoCerts, refused by Check and Create, named by the panel.
- parseTrustedProxies: a bare address takes /128 when written with a
  colon (::ffff:10.0.0.1/32 was ::/32).
Step 4, secretfile (M4, L3): scrypt's V at most 128 MiB, r <= 64, p <= 2;
bytes after the last chunk are ErrCorrupt.
Step 5 (L7): atomicfile.SyncDir after the rename, used by Write,
replaceSASLDB and the CLI; atomicfile_test.go.
Step 6: security.md and guide on backup and restore.

Reviews (technical, security):
- H1: a restore of a server with DMARC on was refused on every start - the
  archive records no owner, tar as root left the DMARC maps root's, and the
  entrypoint only chowned the maps it named. It now hands every file beside
  queue/ in /data/postfix to panel:selfpost 0640; e2e writes an extra map
  before the backup and finds it panel:selfpost 640 after a root unpack.
- the comparison reads regular files only (Lstat, size, LimitReader); a
  record unpacked again wins over the earlier check's mark; ConsumeRestore
  removes both; the mark is synced; a journal file beside a freshly unpacked
  database is refused.
- AttachRefusalLine refuses an empty line as the old statement did; skipped
  entries named in words; -decrypt of an empty payload is no failure; guide
  wording on the shell's '>' and a killed CLI; the in-place restore's
  'mv .' (older than this stage) fixed.

Tested on the test server: go vet + go test of 25 packages, make e2e (all
pass, 643 s) on this tree.

# SQLite schema and migrations
**What this file is.** A living reference for the embedded SQLite schema: the
2.0 baseline, the migrations added after it, and how a database is opened.
When you add or review a migration, update this file in the same change.
**Source of truth in code:** `internal/store/migrations/*.sql`, applied by
`internal/store/store.go` (`migrate()`).
**Related:** [architecture.md](architecture.md) § Persistence;
[plans/panel-redesign.md](plans/panel-redesign.md) § No compatibility;
[development.md](development.md) § Documentation.

## Current snapshot
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Chain head | `user_version = 10` |
| Files | `0001_init.sql` (the 2.0 baseline), `0002_inbound_spam_log.sql`, `0003_send_log_lines.sql`, `0004_notifications.sql`, `0005_send_log_rejected_index.sql`, `0006_sender_check.sql`, `0007_delivery_log_days.sql`, `0008_tenant_boundary.sql`, `0009_refusal_line.sql`, `0010_send_log_indexes.sql` |
| File mark | `PRAGMA application_id = 0x53503230` ("SP20") |
| Database file | `/data/selfpost.db` (bind mount) |
| Compatibility | 2.x MINOR releases must boot a `2.0.0` data directory. **Nothing is carried over from 1.x.** |
---
## 2.0 starts from an empty data directory
Decided by the owner on 2026-09-21: the redesign is a breaking release, the
1.x migration chain (`0001` … `0010`, with its `admin` table created in the
first file and dropped in the fifth) is deleted from the binary, and there is
no upgrade path. The only live 1.x installation is the owner's and is set up
again on 2.0. The 1.x chain stays in git history (last present at `1.9.5`).
What that means in practice:
- A fresh `/data` gets the baseline and nothing else.
- **A 1.x database is refused, not migrated.** `store.Open` returns
`ErrForeignSchema` for a file that has a schema version but not the 2.x
`application_id`. Without that check a 1.x file at `user_version = 10`
would read as "already migrated" and the panel would start on tables it
does not know. The file is not modified. The same applies to restoring a
1.x full backup into a 2.0 container.
- A database whose version is higher than the build knows is refused too.
- Domains can still be carried by hand: a 1.x **domain export** (JSON, with
the DKIM key and applications) imports into 2.0 — the transfer format is
not the database.
---
## How migrations run
1. Migrations are embedded at build time (`//go:embed migrations/*.sql`).
2. Filenames are sorted lexicographically; **file order = version number**.
3. `PRAGMA user_version` records progress: after file *i* (0-based), version is
*i + 1*.
4. Each pending migration runs in its own transaction, then bumps `user_version`.
5. There is no down-migration; fixes ship as a new `00NN_*.sql` file.
**Implication:** once `2.0.0` is released, `0001_init.sql` is never edited
again and no file is deleted, renamed or reordered — every 2.x database has
already run it. `2.0.0` and `2.0.1` shipped with the baseline alone; the
features after them add files, the first being `0002_inbound_spam_log.sql` of
inbound-antispam-panel (`2.1.0`), then `0003_send_log_lines.sql` of
delivery-log-storage (`2.2.0`), `0004_notifications.sql` and
`0005_send_log_rejected_index.sql` of panel-notifications (`2.3.0`), and
`0006_sender_check.sql` of from-header-binding (`2.4.0`), and
`0007_delivery_log_days.sql` and `0008_tenant_boundary.sql` of the 2026-10-12
audit (`2.5.0`), `0009_refusal_line.sql` (`2.5.1`) and
`0010_send_log_indexes.sql` (`2.5.3`).

## Migration chain
| Ver | File | Shipped | Kind | Summary |
|-----|------|---------|------|---------|
| 1 | `0001_init.sql` | 2.0.0 | DDL | The whole 2.0 schema, below |
| 2 | `0002_inbound_spam_log.sql` | 2.1.0 | DDL | `inbound_spam_log`, `inbound_spam_list` and two indexes; nothing existing changes |
| 3 | `0003_send_log_lines.sql` | 2.2.0 | DDL | `send_log_lines` and one index; nothing existing changes |
| 4 | `0004_notifications.sql` | 2.3.0 | DDL | `users.notify` (default 1: every user starts with notifications on) and `notify_state` |
| 5 | `0005_send_log_rejected_index.sql` | 2.3.0 | DDL | `idx_send_log_rejected`, a partial index of the refused rows of `send_log` by time; a file of its own because the test installation had run 0004 before the review asked for it |
| 6 | `0006_sender_check.sql` | 2.4.0 | DDL | `send_log.reason` and `send_log.header_from` (both default `''`: a row refused earlier keeps no reason), and `sender_check_days` |
| 7 | `0007_delivery_log_days.sql` | 2.5.0 | DDL | `delivery_log_days`: what the reconcile sweep and the log tailer did, a row per UTC day, kept a year, shown nowhere - the measurement that decides the sweep's fate (audit 2026-10-12, stage 1). `send_log.reason` gains the values `reconcile` and `reconcile-contradicted` without a schema change |
| 8 | `0008_tenant_boundary.sql` | 2.5.0 | DDL + data | `idx_applications_login_nocase`: an application login is unique without regard to case (audit 2026-10-12, H4). `send_log.domain_id` and `inbound_spam_log.inbound_domain_id` (`ON DELETE SET NULL`), each with an index, filled once by name from the registry as it was then: a row belongs to a domain by id, and a domain deleted and added again starts with an empty log (L12) |
| 9 | `0009_refusal_line.sql` | 2.5.1 | DDL | `send_log.refusal_line`: Postfix's line about a refusal at MAIL FROM (a level-2 limit, a client address off the list), which has no queue id; the log tailer puts it on the row; `send_log.recovered`, a refusal row the tailer wrote from `mail.log` because the panel stopped before writing it; `sender_check_days.messages` (messages deferred mid-message, counted apart from the connections turned away) and `sender_check_days.estimated` (a day whose downtime is an upper bound) (audit 2026-10-12, stage 2b) |
| 10 | `0010_send_log_indexes.sql` | 2.5.3 | DDL | Four indexes of `send_log`, each for a question that walked the table or sorted a domain's log (audit 2026-10-12, M2, stage 3): `idx_send_log_open`, partial, the queued and deferred rows by time (the tailer's sweep every 5 min); `idx_send_log_domain_id` and `idx_send_log_app_login`, a page of one domain's or one application's log in id order; `idx_send_log_refusal_line`, partial, whether a refusal line is already on a row. `TestSendLogQueriesUseTheirIndexes` checks the plans of these and of the other by-time and by-scope statements the store runs |
**Kind:** *DDL* — schema only; *data* — `INSERT`/`UPDATE` that must stay correct
for operators upgrading from older 2.x images.

## Schema at head (v2)
| Table | Role |
|-------|------|
| `settings` | Key/value settings of the instance — what is true whoever is signed in (send-log retention). Nothing that belongs to a user |
| `users` | Panel logins. `role` is `global` or `domain`; `email` is the user's own address; `notify` is the user's own switch for notification e-mails (v4); `all_domains` / `all_inbound_domains` widen a `domain` user to every domain of that direction |
| `sessions` | Panel login sessions (token hash, owning user by id and deleted with them, sliding idle expiry) |
| `domains` | Sending (outbound) domains. `dmarc_rua` is where aggregate reports go (`''` = no reports) |
| `user_domains` | Outbound domains assigned to a `domain` user |
| `applications` | SASL applications per domain, with the client-IP restriction (`auth_ip_restrict`, `auth_allowed_ips`) |
| `application_addresses` | Explicit From addresses (`list` mode) |
| `rate_limits` | Level-2 limits per domain / application, manual or auto |
| `send_log` | Delivery journal |
| `logtail_state` | Log-tailer read position |
| `inbound_domains` | Inbound relay domains |
| `inbound_transports` | Upstream host / port / TLS per inbound domain |
| `inbound_recipients` | Allow-list when `recipient_mode = list` |
| `user_inbound_domains` | Inbound domains assigned to a `domain` user — granted separately from the outbound ones |
| `dmarc_reports` | Parsed aggregate report summaries |
| `dmarc_report_records` | Per-source rows inside a report |
| `inbound_spam_log` | Inbound antispam journal: one row per recipient of a message offered on port 25, with the decision (`accept`, `reject`, `tempfail`, `quarantine`) and who made it (`rspamd`, `postfix`, `selfpost`). Metadata only (v2) |
| `inbound_spam_list` | Allow / deny entries for the external filter (`address`, `domain`, `ip`), instance-wide; unique per list (v2) |
| `notify_state` | What the panel has already written to its users about, one row per subject (`dns:<domain>`, `cert`, `queue`, `limit:<domain>`), so that each thing is said once and a restart says nothing again (v4) |
| `send_log_lines` | The `mail.log` lines Postfix wrote under a queue id, with the line's own time; what a message's page shows once the log has rotated. No reference to `send_log`: a line belongs to a row by queue id and time, and goes when no row carries its id (v3) |
`TestBaselineSchema` (`internal/store/schema_test.go`) pins every table, column
and index of this list; `TestOpenMigratesA20Database` opens a database that
holds the baseline alone.
### What changed against the last 1.x schema
| 1.x | 2.0 | Why |
|---|---|---|
| `admin` created in 0001, dropped in 0005 | never exists | the reason for the squash |
| `users.role` = `global` / `domain_admin` | `global` / `domain` | the role is a reach, not a rank — everyone in the panel is an administrator |
| `users.dmarc_report_email` | `users.email` | a user's e-mail is theirs; it is what the panel writes to, and a domain's report address can be filled with it |
| instance setting `dmarc_report_email` (mirror of the global user's field); `domains.dmarc_rua` NULL = inherit the instance default | `domains.dmarc_rua` alone: the address, `''` = no reports | a domain's report address is one of three explicit choices — no reports, hosted, a typed address; nothing is inherited and no user's default exists (2026-10-10) |
| — | `user_inbound_domains` | inbound is delegated per user, separately from outbound |
| — | `users.all_domains`, `users.all_inbound_domains` | "All" includes domains added later |
| `rate_limits.allowed_ips` (unused since 1.9.0) | gone | client IPs belong to the application (`auth_allowed_ips`) |
### Where a domain's DMARC reports go
`domains.dmarc_rua` is the address itself and the only thing stored; `''` means
no reports, and it is what a new domain has. The choice shown in Domain
settings is derived from it: `''` is no reports, the address SelfPost derives
for the domain and the server's hostname (`dmarc.HostedReportAddress`, offered
while hosted reports are enabled) is hosted, anything else is an address typed
for the domain. Nothing refers to a user: deleting one changes no domain.

## Adding a migration
1. Add `internal/store/migrations/00NN_short_name.sql` (next number).
2. Update the table in [Migration chain](#migration-chain), the snapshot at the
top, and the affected rows of [Schema at head](#schema-at-head-v2).
3. Update `TestBaselineSchema` if tables, columns or indexes change, and add a
test that opens a database at the previous version and migrates it.
4. A *data* migration states in a comment which 2.x versions it is written for.
