jcoffey-dev is traveling from Thursday 1 October through Sunday 4 October. Issues and pull requests are welcome, and will get an answer after that. Thanks for your patience.
Phase 2f of the DLP and mail flow rules spec: the rules now run on mail
an authenticated sender submits, after the DATA system script and
before headers and DKIM signing (§2.1).
- smtp/inbound/mailflow.rs: builds what the rules look at from the
message (subject, the text version of each body, one level of attached
messages, attachment text via the extractor, 10 MB of text at most)
and the envelope (sender's groups and tenant; each recipient local or
not, and its groups). Skipped entirely when no enabled rule applies to
outgoing mail. Rules that can't be loaded refuse with a 451: nothing
unchecked leaves.
- Block: 550 5.7.1 with the rule's notice. Warn: 550 5.7.1 with the
notice and how to override: "[override: reason]" at the start of the
subject, taken out before the message goes on (settled answer 1).
Until phase 3, a hold rule blocks rather than let mail through.
- JMAP: EmailSubmission takes inbuxa:dlpOverride {reason}; a refusal
comes back as inbuxa:dlpWarning or inbuxa:dlpBlocked with each rule's
name and notice (description too, for older clients).
- Audit: one record per DLP match, the sender as actor, action create,
target a message: the recipient domains, each rule with its detectors'
counts, the outcome, an override's reason. Never the matched text. No
new audit action: an older node that meets one fails its daily
clean-up, which would make rolling back unsafe (spec §2.7 updated).
Tests: mail_rules_tests gains the DLP flow over JMAP (no rules, warning
with rule and notice, local recipient not warned, override with a
reason, block that no reason passes, the subject tag stripped from the
delivered message, audit records with no card or key text). smtp
inbound tests pass; system_tests passed twice after one timeout in the
email delivery tests that didn't recur.
A new method, inbuxa:Explanation/set, asks the node's local model for a
short plain-words reading of one thing an administrator is looking at:
a failed recipient in the queue, a Classify verdict, a log line or trace
event, or one setting with its saved value. The server builds the prompt
itself from stored data and the registry schema, never from text the
console sends, and grounds SMTP replies in RFC 3463 and RFC 5321.
What the model is never shown: secrets (including ones nested inside a
setting, like an AI model's HTTP auth), raw protocol events, and the
contents of any other event. A tag name that doesn't have a tag's shape is
refused before a model is asked.
Calls share the AI gate with spam classification, but mail always keeps
its slot, and Explain has its own hourly count per account and its own
on/off switch in inbuxa:AiLimits. The permission is sysAiExplain,
superuser only; tenant administrators can't use it. The session carries
an aiExplain flag so a console knows when to offer the button.
An install whose roles were stored before the permission existed gets it
added once, at start-up, to the roles that are administrators' alone,
not the User role their defaults share with every account. An operator
who removes it later isn't overruled.
Tests: unit tests in inbuxa-features and jmap, and ai_explain_tests
(run with --ignored) covering the acceptance tests and the upgrade.
