/preflight is /server/preflight and the retention setting is on /server/settings; the routes are renamed, so the plan no longer says once they are. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

# Plan: preflight (installation check page)
|
||
|
||
**Status:** candidate
|
||
**Date:** 2026-08-19
|
||
**Version:** `1.x` MINOR; `candidate` until explicitly agreed.
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## Goal
|
||
|
||
A dedicated `/server/preflight` page (global-admin only) that runs infrastructure-level
|
||
checks and helps the administrator confirm the instance is fully configured and
|
||
ready to deliver mail. Each failed check shows an actionable recommendation
|
||
(what to do or where to look).
|
||
|
||
## Mockup
|
||
|
||
[preflight](../assets/panel-redesign/panel/preflight.html), under the design
|
||
contract of [panel-redesign.md](panel-redesign.md): **Server › Preflight**,
|
||
path `/server/preflight`.
|
||
|
||
## Scope
|
||
|
||
**In:**
|
||
|
||
- rDNS / PTR verification (reuse `dnscheck.Checker.checkServer`)
|
||
- TLS certificate validity + hostname match (CN/SAN contains `SELFPOST_HOSTNAME`)
|
||
- Port connectivity: 25, 465, and 587 (if `SUBMISSION_ENABLE`) — dial own
|
||
public IP from inside the container, expect a 220 banner
|
||
- HELO/EHLO banner — connect to localhost:25, verify Postfix announces
|
||
`SELFPOST_HOSTNAME` (not `localhost` or a container ID)
|
||
- Trusted proxy headers:
|
||
- If `TRUSTED_PROXY_CIDR` set: verify peer IP is in range and
|
||
`X-Forwarded-For` is present
|
||
- If `PANEL_COOKIE_SECURE=true`: verify `X-Forwarded-Proto: https`
|
||
- If `TRUSTED_PROXY_CIDR` empty: informational warning (panel exposed
|
||
directly)
|
||
- DKIM signing — OpenDKIM milter socket reachable (reuse `health.CheckSocket`)
|
||
- Send test email — admin enters recipient address, system sends via
|
||
localhost:25, shows queued/error result
|
||
|
||
**Out:**
|
||
|
||
- Per-domain DNS checks (SPF, DKIM TXT, DMARC) — those live on domain detail
|
||
pages.
|
||
- Delivery tracking of test email (only confirms local MTA accepted).
|
||
|
||
## Done when
|
||
|
||
An administrator can open `/server/preflight`, see a traffic-light summary of all
|
||
infrastructure prerequisites, read specific fix instructions for any failures,
|
||
and send a test email to verify end-to-end flow.
|
||
|
||
## Risks
|
||
|
||
- Port-connectivity check from inside the container may not reflect external
|
||
reachability if NAT hairpin is unsupported (document limitation).
|
||
- Test email requires at least one configured domain (or falls back to
|
||
`postmaster@SELFPOST_HOSTNAME`).
|
||
|
||
## Implementation checklist
|
||
|
||
Target version cut: TBD (MINOR). One commit per step; code only after roadmap
|
||
status is **agreed**. See [development.md](../development.md) § Plan checklists.
|
||
|
||
- [ ] Port-connectivity helper (`internal/health/port.go`) — dial own IP, read
|
||
SMTP banner — **Sonnet**
|
||
- [ ] HELO banner check (connect localhost:25, parse 220 line) — **Sonnet**
|
||
- [ ] Hostname-in-certificate check (extend or wrap `health.CheckCertificate`)
|
||
— **Sonnet**
|
||
- [ ] Handler `handlers_preflight.go` (assemble all checks, actionable
|
||
recommendations) — **Sonnet**
|
||
- [ ] Test-email handler (`POST /server/preflight/test-email`, `net/smtp` to
|
||
localhost:25) — **Sonnet**
|
||
- [ ] Template `preflight.html` (traffic-light cards + test-email form) —
|
||
**Sonnet**
|
||
- [ ] Routes in `web.go`, nav link — **Sonnet**
