- Cards and charts link to the page they're about: pending messages to the
queue, bans to blocked IPs, report warnings to the reports, and so on,
shown only to viewers who may open that page.
- A one-line status under the greeting: what needs a look (failed tasks,
messages retrying, recipients given up on) or, when nothing does, what's
there. Each phrase is a link.
- Counts from the server's own objects stand in for live metrics it can't
report, and a live number with no source reads as unknown, not zero.
- Who uses the space: a treemap of people sized by storage, colored by how
near their quota they are, each tile opening the account.
- Where mail is waiting: queued recipients by destination, split into
waiting, retrying and given up, each row opening the filtered queue.
- The weekly rhythm: messages by hour and weekday, shown once metric
history exists.
- Dashboard tabs are titled by their label.
A job that has a wizard now asks "Guide me / I'll do it myself" each time
it starts; nothing is remembered. The shared wizard shell gives every guide
a stepper, a side panel on what each step does and how to undo it, and the
way forward or back.
Automatic DNS, from a domain's DNS section:
- finds where the domain's DNS is hosted from its SOA and NS records, and
offers that host when the server can drive it;
- for the major hosts, steps to create the narrowest credential, and the
field named as the steps name it;
- records grouped by what they do, TLSA off unless the zone is signed;
- saves the provider and switches the domain over, removing the provider
again if the switch fails;
- watches the publishing task and public DNS, ticking each record green,
and boils a host's refusal down to its distinct messages;
- for hosts it can't drive, or domains not in DNS yet, every record laid
out for copying, with the same live checks.
The palette and light/dark choice now live in the account's JMAP Files
(ihasmail/settings.json), the same file and keys INBUXA webmail uses, so
the theme follows the user across devices and both apps. The admin
reads it at sign-in and writes only palette, mode and the derived
legacy theme, after a fresh read, keeping every other key. A palette
change keeps the stored mode. localStorage stays as the first-paint
cache.
Under the user menu, Theme offers ihasmail's palettes, in the same order and
under the same names. ihasmail is the default look, the colors the admin
already had, until someone picks another. The choice is remembered and
applied before the first paint, and dark mode still toggles on its own.
The other palettes' colors are ihasmail's, already contrast-checked, mapped
onto the admin's tokens by scripts/import-palettes.py; re-running it re-syncs
them. NOTICE carries the palettes' MIT notices and the fonts' OFL notices.
It greets the account by its full name where it has one, and otherwise by
the name it signs in with. The line beneath says who is signed in. The account
is looked up by its local part and matched on the whole address, so a
same-named account on another domain can't answer. The username is kept from
the JMAP session and cleared on sign-out.
Management, Settings and Account move to the top bar, as icons with tooltips
beside the theme toggle. The sidebar opens with its area's name and the
collapse toggle, in both states. The source link lives in the user menu, the
sign-in card and the version tooltip, so the sidebar no longer repeats it.
- The INBUXA palette on warm surfaces, softer cards, buttons and inputs, and
self-hosted Inter and Space Grotesk.
- Each section's icon sits on a colored tile, colored by what the section is
about.
- The sidebar gets a guide line for sub-pages and a labeled Management /
Settings / Account switch, and folds to a rail of tiles (remembered).
- Every page has a header with its section's tile.
- Fields and pages with no label of their own are spelled out in words
(defaultCertificateId becomes Default certificate ID).
- The dashboard greets you, and its stat cards wear colored tiles.
- Unavailable live numbers are a calm note, not an error.
- The cat appears in empty lists and while loading.
- Chart colors work again: they were hex values wrapped in hsl().
Every build writes the exact tree it was built from, uncommitted work
included, as source.tar.gz next to the app, and names that tree. The sidebar,
user menu, sign-in card and version tooltip link to it.
Coffey Labs' copyright line is added below Stalwart Labs' in every inherited
file changed, and the new files carry Coffey Labs' alone.
The upgrade prompt and its links are gone, the edition tooltip is neutral,
storage keys and the package description are INBUXA's own, and the README
states the lineage once, in the fine print.
INBUXA Admin talks to one known server whose own page signs in every account,
so it reads the server's OpenID configuration instead of looking endpoints up
per account. The login card now only shows while redirecting, or to retry
when that fails.
inbuxa-version.json holds INBUXA's version. package.json keeps upstream's so
its bumps merge cleanly. The top bar reads "INBUXA Admin 2026.9.18 (WebUI 1.0.11)".
- One edition: whatever edition the server reports, nothing is hidden or
disabled as Enterprise-only (accountStore.setAccountInfo).
- INBUXA branding: name, logo (mark plus a text-colored wordmark), favicon,
page titles, setup wizard text, and ihasmail's palette in light and dark.
- Two-factor setup names INBUXA as the issuer and drops the image parameter
that made authenticator apps fetch a logo from a third-party site.
- Runs apart from the server: the server address can be set at deploy time
with <meta name="api-base-url">, and OAuth endpoints the server returns as
relative paths are resolved against the server's address, not the page's.
Verified end to end against a separate inbuxa-server.
- Upstream's release workflow moved to .github-upstream so it never runs.
Upstream's history contains no Enterprise-only code, so this is an ordinary
fork. upstream is a fetch-only remote.
