Security audit 2026-10-17, finding M3, stage 1. inboundSession.RcptTo
appended every RCPT (the outbound session de-duplicates), and the end of
the message inserted a row per recipient one statement at a time inside
Postfix's callback; the cut to 10 000 rows every 500 counted only the log
tailer's rows. Postfix accepts a repeated recipient up to
smtpd_recipient_limit (1 000) and sends each to the milter, so one message
was a thousand rows, uncut until the six-hourly prune.
Now: the inbound milter folds a repeated recipient (case-insensitive, as
cleanup's been_here() with BH_FLAG_FOLD does, and as session.RcptTo does);
a message's rows go in one transaction (store.InsertInboundSpamMessage,
which replaces InsertInboundSpam in milter.InboundStore); the count and the
cut moved from the tailer into the store (countInboundWrites, an atomic
counter on Store) so the milter's rows, the tailer's and the tailer's
start-up re-reads all count. store.InboundSpamLogMaxRows is the one cap.
Tests: TestInboundRecipientRepeatedIsOneRow (1 000 RCPT in two cases, one
row); TestInboundJournalIsCutWhicheverWriterWrites (a small cap: a message's
rows and refusals together cross the mark, the table is cut); the tailer's
own counting test went with its counter. go test ./internal/store
./internal/milter ./internal/logtail (Windows-only Follow failures aside).
Also gofmt of a test line from the M2 commit.
