# SelfPost — architecture (as-built)
|
|
|
|
**Source of truth:** the code tree, not historical specs. Synchronise this file
|
|
when env keys, routes, or mail-path behaviour change. Verification method:
|
|
[documentation-plan.md](documentation-plan.md) §2.
|
|
|
|
User install/operations: [README.md](../README.md). Product boundaries:
|
|
[product.md](product.md).

## Image and processes
|
|
|
|
Single Debian slim image. `entrypoint.sh` (root) fixes `/data` ownership and
|
|
milter socket directories, validates `SELFPOST_HOSTNAME`, then execs
|
|
`supervisord` as PID 1.
|
|
|
|
Managed programs ([build/supervisord.conf](../build/supervisord.conf)):
|
|
|
|
| Program | User | Priority | Role |
|
|
|---|---|---|---|
|
|
| `opendkim` | opendkim | 100 | DKIM signing milter |
|
|
| `panel` | panel | 200 | HTTP UI + journal-milter + log-tailer goroutine |
|
|
| `postfix` | root (wrapper) | 300 | MTA — started only after both milter sockets exist |
|
|
| `postfix-reload` | root | — | On-demand `postfix reload` (autostart off) |
|
|
| `cert-reload` | root | 400 | Daily `postfix reload` for renewed TLS certs |
|
|
| `logrotate` | root | 400 | Periodic `mail.log` rotation |
|
|
|
|
Start order: OpenDKIM → panel (opens journal-milter socket) → Postfix wrapper
|
|
polls unix sockets (timeout `MILTER_WAIT_TIMEOUT`, default 30s) then
|
|
`postfix start-fg`.
|
|
|
|
`crashexit` event listener exits the container on any managed process FATAL so
|
|
Docker `restart: unless-stopped` recreates a broken instance.
|
|
|
|
**Liveness:** `GET /healthz` (unauthenticated) returns 200 when opendkim,
|
|
panel, and postfix are RUNNING; Docker `HEALTHCHECK` uses the same probe.
|
|
|

## Mail path
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
Client ──TLS+SASL──► Postfix (465 smtps, optional 587 submission)
|
|
│
|
|
├─► OpenDKIM milter (sign, tempfail on failure)
|
|
├─► journal-milter (send log + L2 rate limits, fail-open)
|
|
└─► outbound MX delivery (port 25 client)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Postfix ([build/postfix-config.sh](../build/postfix-config.sh))
|
|
|
|
- **465/smtps** — implicit TLS, SASL required; primary listener.
|
|
- **587/submission** — only when `SUBMISSION_ENABLE=true`; STARTTLS with
|
|
`smtpd_tls_security_level=encrypt`.
|
|
- **No open relay** — `permit_sasl_authenticated`, `reject_unauth_destination`;
|
|
`smtpd_sender_login_maps` + `reject_sender_login_mismatch`.
|
|
- **Level-1 rate limit** — `smtpd_client_message_rate_limit` /
|
|
`anvil_rate_time_unit` from `RATE_LIMIT_*` env vars; independent of milter.
|
|
- **Chroot disabled** for all services (DNS/TLS inside container).
|
|
- **TLS certs** — read-only mount at `TLS_CERT_FILE` / `TLS_KEY_FILE`; daily
|
|
reload via `cert-reload`.
|
|
|
|
### OpenDKIM
|
|
|
|
Per-domain keys under `/data/opendkim/keys`; `KeyTable` / `SigningTable` maintained
|
|
by the panel. Socket `/run/opendkim/opendkim.sock`.
|
|
|
|
### Panel binary ([cmd/panel](../cmd/panel))
|
|
|
|
One process, three roles:
|
|
|
|
1. **HTTP server** — `:8080` (`PANEL_HTTP_ADDR`); HTTPS terminated by reverse
|
|
proxy only.
|
|
2. **journal-milter** — unix socket `JOURNAL_MILTER_SOCKET`; records From/To/
|
|
Subject/SASL user at DATA; enforces level-2 rate limits; **fail-open**
|
|
(`default_action=accept`) so milter failure does not stop mail.
|
|
3. **log-tailer** — follows `MAIL_LOG`, updates send-log delivery status by
|
|
queue-id.
|
|
|
|
Milter chain in Postfix: OpenDKIM (tempfail) then journal (accept on failure).
|

## Panel HTTP surface
|
|
|
|
Route table: [internal/web/web.go](../internal/web/web.go). Authenticated
|
|
unless noted.
|
|
|
|
| Route | Purpose |
|
|
|---|---|
|
|
| `/healthz` | Liveness (no auth) |
|
|
| `/setup/*` | One-time admin bootstrap |
|
|
| `/login`, `/logout` | Session auth |
|
|
| `/status` | Process, cert, socket, PTR checks |
|
|
| `/domains`, `/domains/*` | Domain and application CRUD, DKIM, L2 limits |
|
|
| `/deliveries` | Send log with filters |
|
|
| `/mail-queue` | Postfix queue view |
|
|
| `/system-log` | `mail.log` tail |
|
|
| `/reload` | Reload OpenDKIM + Postfix maps |
|
|
| `/backup` | Full backup download, domain import |
|
|
| `/account` | Admin username/password |
|
|
|
|
HTMX polling refreshes monitoring fragments; polling does not extend session
|
|
idle timeout.
|
|
|

|
## Persistence (`/data` bind mount)
|
|
|
|
| Path | Contents |
|
|
|---|---|
|
|
| `selfpost.db` | SQLite: domains, apps, admin, sessions, send log, L2 limits |
|
|
| `setup-token` | First-run setup token file |
|
|
| `opendkim/` | DKIM keys + tables |
|
|
| `sasl/sasldb2` | Application SASL credentials |
|
|
| `postfix/sender_login_maps` | Login → From binding |
|
|
| `manifest.json` | Backup version stamp (consumed on restore) |
|
|
|
|
Not in `/data`: TLS certificates (reverse-proxy mount), Postfix queue
|
|
(transit mail not migrated by design).
|
|
|
|
**Rotation:** send-log retention `SEND_LOG_RETENTION_DAYS` (default 90);
|
|
`mail.log` via logrotate (14 files, check every 6h, `postfix reload` on rotate).
|
|
|
|
**Backup:** panel button or `selfpost-backup` CLI — SQLite snapshot + tar of
|
|
`/data` tree; version check on restore. Stopped-container `tar` of `./data` is
|
|
safe (see README).
|

## Security (summary)
|
|
|
|
Mandatory checklist: [security.md](security.md). Accepted trade-offs (CSRF
|
|
origin check, no CSRF tokens) are documented there separately.

|
|
