A school, or any organization that doesn't want people's mailboxes
shared, can now turn that off (multi-account spec, MA-C). Two switches
at two levels, as the legacy-protocols switch has:
- mailSharing: people may share their own mail folders;
- addAccounts: people may add other accounts to the webmail (read by
the webmail's account switcher, MA-B).
inbuxa:SharingPolicy/get and /set hold them: the server's policy has
the singleton id, each tenant's has the tenant's id. Both default to
on, so nothing changes until someone turns one off. A tenant's
administrator changes their own tenant's (the domain's permissions, as
for its protocols switch); only a server administrator with
sysSharingUpdate changes the server's; a tenant can never be looser
than the server (forbidden). Every change goes through the audit log,
and rebuilds every access token, here and on every node.
With mail sharing off for an account's tenant (or the server):
- Mailbox/set and IMAP SETACL refuse to start or widen a share
(forbidden / NO [NOPERM]); narrowing or ending one is always allowed;
- shares already made give nothing while it is off: an access token
leaves out mailbox grants from such an owner. They stay stored, so
turning sharing back on restores them (John, 2026-10-05);
- a lock's and a shared mailbox's grants are an administrator's and
always count, and group membership was never a share.
The session's own account says mailSharing and addAccounts, the
stricter of the two levels, so front ends can hide what is off.
Tests: a new sharing_policy suite with a school tenant, its own
administrator and two people outside it: on by default; the school's
administrator turns it off but can't touch the server's; an old share
stops working and a new one is refused while someone outside the school
is unaffected; a shared mailbox in the school keeps working; the server
off can't be loosened by the tenant; on again restores the old share;
ending a share works while off; and every change is audited. A unit
test covers the stricter-only rule. sharing_policy_tests, jmap_tests,
imap_tests, account_lock_tests and audit_log_tests pass (RocksDB).
A shared mailbox (support@, legal@) belongs to no one person: nobody
signs in to it, and the people assigned open it beside their own mail
at an access level an administrator chose. An account lock already is
most of that: it keeps receiving mail, refuses every sign-in, and its
delegates reach it through real grants on every container (so IMAP,
DAV and JMAP honor them), never including Share. So a shared mailbox is
a lock of a second kind (multi-account spec, MA-S; John, 2026-10-05).
Lock gains kind: "lock" (the default, so stored locks read as before)
or "sharedMailbox", set on create and fixed after. A shared mailbox:
- needs no reason to make, change or end;
- holds up to 100 people, where a lock holds 10;
- runs its own Sieve replies and redirects, so an automatic
acknowledgement goes out (a lock answers no one);
- records only what is sent as it (audit_send_as, which now covers it),
not AL-9's access and per-change records, which would bury the log
for a busy desk;
- sends only as itself (MA-S3): From and Reply-To must be its own
addresses, so answers come back to the mailbox and not to whoever
replied; anything else is forbiddenFrom.
The session marks it delegation: {locked: true, kind: "sharedMailbox"},
so a front end that knows no kind still treats it as a lock. The
console's layout gains Management › Directory › Shared Mailboxes
(CustomComponent/SharedMailboxes).
Tests: the account lock suite now goes on to a shared mailbox: made
without a reason with twelve people, sign-in refused, the session's
kind, its vacation reply delivered, an answer sent as it and recorded
as the agent with no per-change records, and a Reply-To naming the
agent refused; a lock unit test reads a stored lock without a kind.
account_lock_tests, jmap_tests, audit_log_tests and imap_tests pass
(RocksDB).
A group's members reach its mailbox through membership, which counts
as owning the account, so every ACL check was skipped: on a scratch
server a member gave an outsider read access to the group's Inbox with
one Mailbox/set shareWith, with no administrator involved and nothing
audited. Who is in a group is an administrator's decision.
AccessToken::is_group_member_only names that case (in the account
only through a group, without Impersonate). For such a member:
- Mailbox/set with a shareWith change, on create or update, is
refused as forbidden;
- IMAP SETACL and DELETEACL answer NO [NOPERM];
- myRights reports mayShare false, and MYRIGHTS leaves out "a";
every other right stays.
Administrators and the account itself are unchanged. The JMAP ACL
test's group section now checks all three for a member and that the
outsider still has nothing (specs/multi-account.md, MA-D0, G1).
jmap_tests and imap_tests pass (RocksDB). The IMAP refusal has no test
of its own yet; imap_tests passing shows the rest is unchanged.
An Email/set with mailboxIds {"": true} was accepted and filed the
message in the Inbox. Id::from_str returned 0 for an empty string, and
document 0 is each collection's first: the Inbox for mail. RFC 8620
§1.2 ids are 1 to 255 characters, so "" is refused now, and every
caller already treats a refused id as invalid or not found.
Over-long ids still parse as they did; upstream's test accepts them on
purpose. Found while probing group mailboxes on a scratch server
(specs/multi-account.md, G3).
types tests, jmap_tests and imap_tests pass (RocksDB).
A group's members can send as the group, and the message says only
From: the group, so nothing recorded which person sent it. Every
submission whose envelope sender belongs to another account now writes
an audit record: the person as actor, an EmailSubmission target named
by the address and owned by that account, and "Sent as <address>",
with ", from <account>" when it went out through the sender's own
account rather than the group's.
A delegate's send is left to AL-9's record, and a send from the
sender's own address writes nothing. No Sender: header is added: the
audit log is where the real sender is named. email_submission_set now
takes the access token, from its one caller.
The audit suite has a group member send once as the group (one
record, with the address, account and details) and once as themselves
(none) (specs/multi-account.md, MA-D0a, G2).
Mail to chuckmckinnon.com sat in the queue for days with "Error fetching
TLSA record: DNSSEC validation failed". Its MX, mail.usefulinsight.com,
is on Cloudflare, and behind Hetzner's resolvers
_25._tcp.mail.usefulinsight.com answers TLSA with a signed CNAME to the
zone apex, which has no TLSA record. That is the second hickory 0.26.3
bug #72 works around: it checks the denial against the name first asked
for, not the CNAME's target, and calls a valid answer bogus.
#72 put MX and address lookups through validated_lookup but left the
TLSA lookup calling hickory directly. It goes through validated_lookup
now: a signed CNAME is followed, the denial at the target validates, and
the result is "no TLSA record", so delivery goes ahead without DANE as
it should. A TLSA record that rechecks as insecure is treated as no
policy, since DANE needs a signed one.
Cloudflare's own resolver answers that name with a compact denial at the
name itself, which hickory already accepts, so the new ignored test
takes a resolver from INBUXA_TEST_DNS_TCP. Run against 185.12.64.2 over
an SSH bridge from host1, hickory alone fails with "DNSSEC validation
failed", as in production, and validated_lookup returns a non-bogus
denial. smtp lib tests pass; check --all-targets is clean.
The webmail repository was renamed from ihasmail-inbuxa to inbuxa-webmail
on 2026-10-05. The OAuth client id stays ihasmail-inbuxa: that is what the
server registers, so the backticked and quoted ids are unchanged.
queue.count, user.count and domain.count count the whole cluster, and
only the node with the metrics-calculation role works them out. Every
node still stored them. On the others the queue gauge only moves with
local queue events, so it had drifted below zero (production: node 0 at
18,446,744,073,709,551,596, node 1 at ...613, i.e. -20 and -3), and
the account and domain counts stayed at 0. A reader taking the latest
reading got whichever node wrote last.
sample() now takes whether the node calculates them and leaves them out
otherwise. A unit test covers both cases.
The v2026.9.30.1 binaries job lost a 50 MB upload to Gitea's release
API on each of its two runs (curl 92, HTTP/2 PROTOCOL_ERROR; the origin
logged 400 with no body), arm64 the first time and amd64 the second.
The uploads cross Cloudflare. A failed run also left the release short
of the file it had just deleted.
Uploads now go over HTTP/1.1, and every API call retries 5 times.
The v2026.9.30 tag build's arm64 publish job was killed linking the
inbuxa binary (fat LTO, one codegen unit): cannot allocate memory on the
16 GB ubuntu-24.04-arm runner. index, ghcr, release, binaries and
announce were skipped. amd64 got through on the same size of runner.
Each publish job now adds a 16 GB swap file before the build; buildx's
container has no memory limit of its own, so the linker can use it.
Each node stores histograms as running totals since it started. A sample
didn't say which node wrote it (the node was only in the id's low bits),
so a reader couldn't diff totals per node, and the console diffed across
nodes: on the three-node production cluster the delivery attempt time
read 14.7 s over the last hour against 0.7 s from the nodes' own figures.
x:Metric/get now returns nodeId alongside timestamp, both from the id.
The telemetry suite checks every sample carries it.
The Gitea registry stays authoritative; GHCR becomes a copy of it, the way
the GitHub repository is a copy of the Gitea one. After the tag build has
pushed the release image to the registry, a new ghcr job copies it to
ghcr.io under the same version tag and :latest with `imagetools create` --
a copy, not a rebuild, so the digest on GHCR is the digest on the registry.
Anything still pulling the old ghcr.io name, including the TrueNAS app
submission, keeps receiving releases. The job uses the run's own token and is
left out of the status reported to Gitea, so a GHCR problem cannot fail a
release.
The mirror carries tags to GitHub but not releases, so the replica's
Releases page -- and anyone watching the repository there -- stopped at the
last release made on GitHub. After the tag build has published, a new
github-release job copies the tag's Gitea release to a GitHub release: the
same notes, with PR and issue numbers rewritten to Gitea links, the same
files, and a line pointing back to the Gitea release.
It uses the run's own token and is left out of the status reported to
Gitea, so it cannot fail a release. With no Gitea release for the tag it
does nothing.
GitHub scopes a run's Actions cache to its ref, so the cache a tag build
wrote could only ever be read by that same tag: the next release built cold
anyway. Each release also parked several GB of Rust layers in the
repository's 10 GB cache, enough to evict main's cargo cache and slow
everyday builds too. The image builds now run without a cache.
The github job only polls Gitea for GitHub's commit status, but it holds a
runner slot for as long as the GitHub build takes -- the better part of an
hour for a cold build. On the shared build runners a handful of those
could take every slot and stall real work, so it now runs on the `wait`
label: a runner of its own, with many slots, no docker socket and a small
CPU and memory cap.
The mirror can push one commit twice in quick succession. GitHub then
starts two runs and cancels the older, and that run's report job posted
"failure" for the commit. Gitea's github job, seeing the newest status,
failed the check while the surviving run was still building and later
passed.
A cancelled run now posts nothing and leaves the result to the run that
superseded it. A real failure still reports failure.
This repository is now push-mirrored to GitHub, where issues and pull
requests would never reach the maintainers. A note under the title says
where development happens, and sends issues to git.coffeylabs.org and
discussions to community.coffeylabs.org.
Gitea stays where the project lives and push-mirrors every branch and tag
to GitHub. With the Actions variable BUILD_ON set to 'github' on both
forges, the GitHub copy does the building and reports back to Gitea as a
commit status; unset, nothing changes and Gitea builds as before.
.github/workflows/ci.yml replaces the GitHub-era files. Branch pushes run
what Gitea's ci.yml checks (fork checks, dev build, test targets, the
release profile on main). v* tags run what publish.yml does, with the same
two guards: the image per architecture on native runners side by side,
the multi-arch index and :latest, the Gitea Release if the tag has none,
and the host-install binaries taken out of the image. A final job posts
"github/ci (branch)" or "github/ci (tag)" to the commit on Gitea.
On Gitea, the heavy jobs skip under BUILD_ON=github and a `github` job
waits for that status and passes or fails with it, so pull requests and
merges still look at a Gitea run. The weekly release, the upstream watch
and the announcement stay on Gitea.
Removed: cleanup.yml and publish.yml (GHCR), release.yml (a second weekly
schedule), and dependabot.yml, whose pull request branches every mirror
sync would delete.
Documents under C-5 why oAuthClientOverride counts only in bootstrap
and recovery mode, and adds tests/e2e/client_override.py: the
recovery administrator keeps the override in both modes; after setup,
an administrator gets no code for an unregistered client or a
redirect URI its client didn't register, and a device code approved
for an unregistered client can't be exchanged. The script fails
against a build without the change (3 of 8) and passes with it.
The recovery administrator signs in before any OAuth client is
registered, so it needs to skip the registration check. Outside
bootstrap and recovery mode, every account now signs in through a
registered client and one of its redirect URIs.
Anyone could host a copy of a front end on a server of their own,
collect a person's password there, and replay it as HTTP Basic against
JMAP or the API. Cross-origin rules don't stop that, since a server
isn't a browser, and neither does client registration, since Basic
never goes through OAuth (contract C-23).
JMAP (session, API, upload, download, event source, WebSocket), /api,
/auth/introspect, /auth/userinfo and authenticated /auth/register now
refuse an Authorization: Basic header before looking at the password,
with a 401 whose only challenge is Bearer. A wrong password gets the
same answer as the right one. CalDAV and CardDAV keep Basic, and their
401s still offer it. The sign-in page's /api/auth takes the password in
its body and is unaffected, as is the token endpoint's client
authentication.
Bootstrap and recovery mode accept Basic everywhere, as they keep
permissive CORS. INBUXA_HTTP_BASIC_AUTH=all puts it back everywhere;
dav is the default, and any other value logs a warning and keeps it.
Test builds accept Basic everywhere, since the integration suites sign
in with passwords, and legacy_protocols.py sets the variable.
Tested: unit tests for the paths, and tests/e2e/http_basic_auth.py
against the debug build, 26 checks, including both front ends' sign-in
path and a refused unregistered redirect.
Phase 4 of the journaling spec.
- inbuxa:JournalEntry/query and /get (sysJournalSearch): filter by time,
sender, recipient, either, direction, subject words, Message-ID and
journal, newest first; the whole report only when asked for.
- inbuxa:JournalExport/set (sysJournalExport): a reason is required; a
ZIP of the matching reports with manifest.csv, exceptions.csv and
manifest.sha256, up to 10,000 reports and 1 GB.
- inbuxa:JournalVerification/set (sysJournalGet): chains and reports
rechecked.
- Every search, listing, read, export and check is written to the audit
log before anything is returned, with existing actions only.
- Catalog entries for the three objects; spec as-built notes.
journal_tests: administrators can't search; a Compliance Officer searches,
lists, reads a report, exports (reason required) and checks the chain;
the officer can't change journals; each of those is in the audit log.
Phase 3 of the journaling spec.
- A journal's destination: builtIn (true for journals stored before) and
archiveAddress, at least one. Reports to an archive are queued from the
empty sender, one per address, flagged so they're never journaled.
- A pending record per report. When the queue lets go of one without
delivering it (refused, expired, deleted), it becomes its own entry in
the built-in journal under the sending journals' retention, the
journal's archiveFailures (count, last time, reason) goes up, and the
audit log records it; if that can't be written it stays queued.
- Journal it: a rule action naming a journal, on mail flow rules and
beside a DLP rule's block, warn or hold. A journal whose scope chooses
nobody takes only what rules send it.
- The report lists recipients a rule added or redirected to under
"Added by rule", by rule name.
- A rule's route is cleared between messages in one SMTP session, with the
new journal marks; a second message used to keep the first one's route.
tests/src/system/journal.rs: destination validation, a rule-only journal
fed by a rule that also adds a recipient, an unreachable archive's report
kept in the built-in journal with the failure counted, a report delivered
to an archive here and not journaled itself.
Phase 2 of the journaling spec.
- A copy of each message is taken in MessageWrapper::queue, after DLP and
transport rules, for every enabled journal that takes it (direction and
scope: everyone, or accounts, groups, domains, tenants). If the copy
can't be taken the message isn't queued (temporary failure).
- The journal report: the envelope one field a line (sender, To, Cc, Bcc
from the envelope, list members from their ORCPT, direction, held for
review), then the queued message byte for byte as message/rfc822.
- The built-in journal under J in the inbuxa subspace: one chain per node
whose links name each entry by SHA-256, so entries can expire out of
chain order; purge leaves a marker, and verify catches an entry changed
or removed early and a report that doesn't match.
- Retention per journal (30 to 3650 days); an entry keeps what it was
written with. The daily maintenance purges what's due, keeping entries
whose people a legal hold covers (deleted accounts a hold keeps too),
and records the counts in the audit log.
- inbuxa:Journal get/set, audited by the request layer. Permissions
680-683: administrators see and change journals; the Compliance Officer
sees, searches and exports. Whoever changes journals may grant search and
export without holding them, so officers can still be appointed.
- Catalog entries (inbuxa:Journal, source "journal"); spec as-built notes.
tests/src/system/journal.rs: validation, internal mail with a Bcc,
outgoing into two journals, incoming over LMTP, the report and its
original, tamper and early removal caught, hold-aware purge, retention
changes leave entries alone, disabled and removed journals take nothing.
senderGroup, senderTenant and recipientGroup conditions now read and write group and tenant ids as JMAP ids ("b", "c"…), like legal hold scopes and the rest of the API, so the console can use its object pickers; plain numbers are still read. Held as numbers for matching. Unit test for both forms and a bad id; mail_rules_tests round-trips a tenant condition over JMAP.
inbuxa:DlpSettings (singleton, urn:inbuxa:jmap): keepHeldDays, 1 to 90,
7 by default (settled answer 5 made it a setting). sysDlpPolicyGet reads
it, sysDlpPolicyUpdate changes it, server-level, audited by the request
layer. Each held message keeps the days it was given, and the sender's
notices say that number. Privacy catalog entry; spec §2.6 updated.
mail_rules_tests: 7 by default, 0 refused, 3 set and a message held
afterwards expires 3 days after it was held, the expiry notice says 3.
An EmailSubmission create's response carries inbuxa:held (dlp-and-mail-flow-rules spec, §2.6, §4): true when the message is held for review, false otherwise, so the webmail can say so at once. A sender can't read the review queue, and a held message's sendAt is its real send time, not the century-off release, so this is how the sender learns. mail_rules_tests checks both values.
Schema layout entries for the console pages of the DLP and mail flow rules spec (§3): Held Mail and Data Loss Prevention under Management > Compliance after Legal Holds, and Mail Flow Rules beside the server Sieve scripts (the console's nine-group Settings bar places it under Mail flow). An older console shows these as unknown pages, so this ships with the console that has them.
The hold action now holds (dlp-and-mail-flow-rules spec, §2.6), where
until now it blocked.
- At DATA a hold decision queues the message with its release a century
off (the queue's future-release mechanism, so the stored format is
unchanged and an older node just never sends it), transport rules
still applied, and replies 250 Held for review. A review record under
R/h + queue id keeps the sender, recipients, subject, size, rules and
detector counts. The sender is told when the rule asks.
- smtp/queue/held.rs: release (each recipient due now, its next notice
as far off as it was, its lifetime counted from the release), reject
(removed from the queue, the sender told, with the reviewer's note),
and expiry: the daily clean-up rejects what nobody reviewed in 7 days,
recorded as the server's doing.
- inbuxa:HeldMessage get/set: the review queue, sysDlpReviewGet to list
and read (preview, 64 KB of text, only when asked for and recorded as
blobAccess), sysDlpReviewUpdate to release or reject, a reason
required and audited by the request layer; no create or destroy;
server-level only.
- Guards: Emails > Queue refuses to change or delete held mail; the
sender can't unsend it.
- Privacy catalog entry for inbuxa:HeldMessage; spec §2.6 as built.
Tests: mail_rules_tests gains the whole flow (held and listed with
counts, sender notified and nothing delivered, queue and unsend
refused, preview recorded, reject needs a reason and tells the sender
the note, release delivers, expiry returns it, decisions audited with
reasons). smtp inbound, system_tests (after one BlobNotFound in
antispam, the known flake, then clean), features and common unit tests.
Phase 2g of the DLP and mail flow rules spec: transport rules now act,
on outgoing and incoming mail.
- features/mailflow/rewrite.rs: add or remove a header, prefix or set the
subject (an RFC 2047 word when not ASCII), add a disclaimer. A
disclaimer edits the message's main text and HTML bodies only, each
decoded, changed and written back as UTF-8 quoted-printable with its
other headers kept, top or bottom (after <body> or before </body> in
HTML); attachments and attached messages are left alone, and a
disclaimer already present isn't added again.
- smtp/inbound/mailflow.rs: the check runs for incoming mail too
(transport rules only; DLP stays outgoing). After DLP passes, each
matched transport rule's actions run in order: message edits,
add-recipient and redirect (envelope changes DATA applies), route (a
per-message queue ahead of the queue strategy), refuse (550 5.7.1
with the rule's text). The override tag is stripped with the same
subject writer, so a non-ASCII subject stays valid.
- Audit: refusals and changes to where mail goes are recorded (sender,
or system:mail-flow for incoming mail); wording and header changes
aren't, or a banner rule would record every message (spec §2.7).
Tests: rewrite unit tests (headers, encoded subjects, disclaimers on a
single part and on multipart/alternative with an attachment, once
only); mail_rules_tests gains the actions end to end: disclaimer,
header and subject prefix on a delivered message, a redirect, a
refusal, a banner on incoming LMTP mail that outgoing rules leave
alone, and which of those are audited.
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.
Phase 2e of the DLP and mail flow rules spec, the API half.
- inbuxa:MailRule/get and /set under urn:inbuxa:jmap. Rules convert
through serde, so what a client sends is the stored format. A create
or change is validated whole (Rule::validate) and refused with the
property at fault; id, createdBy, createdAt and updatedAt are the
server's. Every change goes through the request layer's audit record.
- Six permissions, ids 674-679 (enum and schema labels): mail flow rules
(sysMailRuleGet/Update), DLP rules (sysDlpPolicyGet/Update) and held
mail (sysDlpReviewGet/Update, for phase 3). Either kind's permission
gets through the gate; the handler shows and changes each rule only
with its own kind's. All server-level: a tenant is refused (settled
answer 3).
- Administrators get all six; the server-level Compliance Officer gets
DLP rules to see and held mail to review (settled answer 4), added
once to an existing server's officer role by the grant mechanism,
which gains an officer audience.
- Privacy catalog entry for inbuxa:MailRule.
tests/src/system/mail_rules.rs: create, list in order, validation,
server-set properties refused, update, kind-separated permissions for
an officer, destroy, audit records.
Phase 2e of the DLP and mail flow rules spec, in the features crate.
- rules.rs: a rule (§2.2) with its conditions (§2.3) and actions (§2.4),
as JSON under R/r in the fork's subspace. validate() enforces the
spec's shape: DLP rules check outgoing mail and have exactly one of
block, warn or hold; transport rules have neither those nor
detectors; lists, header names, header values (one line), addresses,
texts, word lists, patterns and detector ids are checked.
- engine.rs: rules compiled once (word lists to automata, patterns to
size-limited regexes) and run in priority order with exceptions and
stop processing. Each detector runs at most once per message and
only when a rule asks for it. The outcome lists what matched with
each detector's count, and decides DLP strictest first: block, hold,
warn; an override answers warnings only (§2.5).
- cache.rs: each node's compiled copy, refreshed after 30 seconds or at
once when this node changes a rule.
Nothing calls this yet: the JMAP object and the check at DATA follow.
55 unit tests in mailflow.
Phase 2b of the DLP and mail flow rules spec: every identifier in the
§2.3 catalog, each implemented from its issuer's published rules and
tested against published examples.
US (SSN, ITIN, EIN, ABA routing, driver's licenses, MBI, NPI, DEA), UK
(NI number, NHS number, UTR), Canada (SIN), Australia (TFN, Medicare),
the EU (Germany's tax ID and ID card, France's NIR, Spain's DNI/NIE,
Italy's codice fiscale, the Dutch BSN, Belgium's national number,
Poland's PESEL, Sweden's personnummer, Denmark's CPR, Finland's HETU,
Ireland's PPS, Portugal's NIF, Austria's SVNR), Norway, Switzerland,
India (Aadhaar, PAN), China, Japan, Singapore, South Korea, Brazil (CPF,
CNPJ), Mexico (CURP) and South Africa. 49 detectors in all, plus seven
templates named for what they find.
An identifier that is only digits and whose check about one random
number in ten passes counts alone only in its written form
(536-22-1234, 943 476 5919) and as bare digits only beside a word; ABA
routing numbers and NPIs always need one. Spec §2.3 records this.
A test runs every detector over an ordinary business email (order,
invoice and tracking numbers, dates, amounts, an address) and requires
nothing to fire but the contact detectors. 47 unit tests.
Phase 2a of the DLP and mail flow rules spec: pure functions in
crates/features/src/mailflow, nothing wired into the mail path yet.
- Detectors report distinct values found, each either checked by its
published check digit or counted only beside a corroborating word
within 50 characters. This PR adds the region-free ones: payment
cards (issuer prefixes, Luhn), IBAN (registry lengths, mod 97),
SWIFT/BIC, email addresses and phone numbers in bulk, dates of birth,
passport numbers, private keys and published service-token formats.
Regional identifiers follow, a region per PR.
- Word lists (Aho-Corasick, whole words, any case) and patterns (regex
with a compiled-size limit) count occurrences.
- Attachment text: text files with or without a UTF-16 mark, HTML,
DOCX/XLSX/PPTX, ODT/ODS/ODP and ZIP archives one level deep, read
with the zip and quick-xml crates the workspace already has.
Encrypted files, PDF, legacy binary Office files, nested archives
and anything past the limits come back as not inspectable, with why.
21 unit tests, against the networks' test card numbers and the IBAN
registry's own examples among others.
All six settled as recommended. Answer 6 ("and any other recognized and protected PII") becomes a catalog of identifiers with published formats and checks, grouped by region, each either checked by its check digit or counted only beside a corroborating word, plus templates named for what they find. Data with no number to find is covered by word lists and not claimed as detection. Office documents are read; PDF counts as can't be inspected.
Phase 1: one native rule engine at DATA, after the system Sieve script,
for both DLP policies and transport rules. DLP checks outgoing mail
with counted detectors (payment cards, IBAN, US SSN, word lists,
patterns) and blocks, warns with an audited override, or holds for
review. Held mail stays in the queue unscheduled, with its own review
record, so the queue's stored format is unchanged. Matches go to the
audit log without the matched text. Six questions for John at the end.
The automation suite's DNS test compared the published zone with one
copied from upstream v0.16.22. Its _ua-auto-config record carries a
SHA-256 of the account-configuration (PACC) document, and that document
names the provider as the brand, which the rebrand changed. The digest
the server publishes is right; the expected zone still held upstream's.
With the new digest the whole automation suite passes: ACME (including
the not-due reschedule check), DKIM, DNS and RFC 2136. It had been
failing at this point on main since the rebrand.
POST /api/directory/test takes a saved directory's id, an address and
optionally a password, and answers whether the directory opened, what a
recipient lookup of the address finds (account or group, with its
aliases, groups and name), and whether the password signs in. A wrong
password is told apart from a directory that can't be reached or is set
up wrong.
It calls the directory itself, below the sign-in path: a test never
creates or updates an account, never counts toward the sign-in ban and
doesn't depend on which domains use the directory. A password hash a
directory returns is never sent back. OIDC directories report their
discovered issuer; they take no passwords.
For server-level administrators with directory update permission. The
console's guided directory setup uses it to test a real person before
any domain is switched over.
The registry knows, for every expression field, the constants it may
evaluate to and the variables its conditions may read, and enforces both.
The schema served to INBUXA Admin described every one as a bare
x:Expression, so the console could offer nothing better than free text.
tools/fork/expr-schema.py reads those contexts from the generated registry
code and writes them onto each field's type as
expression: {constants, variables}. All 124 expression fields are covered.
CI runs it with --check so the schema can't drift from the registry.
The personal-data catalog and what it feeds: the data inventory and its
snapshots (#83, #89), the Compliance Officer roles (#88), the Compliance
Overview and Data Inventory menu entries (#92). Log file retention
(#87), privacy defaults for new installs (#85, #90), webhooks that send
only the events they name (#82), and upstream v0.16.24 (#84), whose
spam rules updates keep what an admin edited.
Explain: 12 settings asked about (upstream's new createdAt fields, the
certificate dates and the webhook events policy), with the release's
recommended model built locally; 705 answers carry over.
When a valid certificate already covered a domain's names (one stored
by hand before the domain was switched to automatic, for instance), the
renewal task ended with NotDue, which the task manager treats as a
permanent failure. Nothing rescheduled it, so the certificate expired
unrenewed. The renewal now returns a new AcmeRenewal task due when the
certificate falls due, the same way a successful renewal does, and logs
it as a backoff.
The ACME integration suite checks that renewing again right after
issuance hands back one AcmeRenewal for that domain, due at the
certificate's renewal point.
Seen in the console's first Overview. x:DmarcTroubleshoot and
x:SpamClassify are one-off actions whose results come back in the
response, not kept: object-life, not unbounded. Tasks go when done
(only a failed one's status may stay, still unconfirmed): object-life.
x:Log reads the log files, so it follows inbuxa:LogSettings.keepForDays.
x:TracerLog, x:WebHook and the OpenTelemetry tracers are configuration:
their credential fields stay classified, but they are no longer listed
in the inventory, where they counted as always sent off the server
even with none configured; the log-file, webhooks and otel-tracer
sources carry what they send.
Personal-data catalog spec, §8: the Compliance section in the console
reads Overview, Data Inventory, Legal Holds, Audit Log, Locked
Accounts. The two new entries are hand-built console pages
(CustomComponent/ComplianceOverview, CustomComponent/DataInventory),
shown to people with sysComplianceGet.
A console from before these pages shows the links and answers
"Unknown component", so the console that has them should be deployed
with the server release that carries this. Schema edited as the fork's
earlier Compliance entries were, hash updated.
Personal-data catalog spec, default D5 (settled 2026-09-28; built after
the v0.16.24 import's spam-rules loader landed). msbl.org's EBL is sent
a SHA-1 of every email address it's asked about. A new install's first
boot now leaves a note, and the rules update, once the bundled rules
are in, switches STWT_MSBL_EBL_EMAIL off and forgets the note, so it
happens once; the loader keeps that switch through later updates. An
existing server has no note and keeps every blocklist as it is.
Also fixes the data inventory's DNSBL endpoints: a zone is an
expression (`ip_reverse + '.zen.spamhaus.org'`, conditional branches,
`hash(email, 'sha1') + '.ebl.msbl.org'`), and the zone names are now
the quoted literals that start with a dot, from every branch, rather
than the expression's text.
Tested: unit test for the zone rule; the compliance system test (no
note, no change; the inventory lists ebl.msbl.org, not a hash; with the
note the blocklist goes off; the note works once); the system suite;
fork checks.
Personal-data catalog spec, §6 (Phase 3c).
inbuxa:DataInventory/get evaluates the catalog against the server's
live settings and says what this server holds: for each source and each
object that can hold personal data, its categories and whose data it
is, whether it is collected here at all, what bounds its retention (the
live value of the setting that does, or unbounded), whether it leaves
the host and to which endpoints, and a summary. Every host that
receives something is listed once as a candidate processor with what it
receives. Inside a tenant it answers with the tenant's slice and none
of the server's processors. Read-only, with sysComplianceGet.
inbuxa:InventorySnapshot/get is the history: a dated copy of the
evaluated inventory, recorded when it changes -- after a registry write
to an object the inventory reads, after inbuxa's log, audit or AI
settings change, and on the daily clean-up -- and kept as long as the
audit log's records. ids: null lists every snapshot, newest first; the
full inventory only when asked for.
The catalog is embedded and parsed at start (new dependency: toml,
MIT/Apache); the evaluation is a pure function of it and the live
facts, so each configuration is tested without a server. Loopback
endpoints stay on the host; any other configured endpoint leaves it.
Tested: unit tests for the evaluation (a new install's defaults, an
external blob store, a hosted AI endpoint, telemetry off, a tenant's
slice, hosts from URLs, loopback), snapshots, and the fact gathering's
store and duration rules; the compliance system test, extended (the
officer reads the inventory, a plain user is refused, a tenant's
officer sees its slice and no processors, a webhook to another host
becomes a processor and a snapshot names x:WebHook, a retention change
reads through); the system, audit, legal hold and account lock suites;
fork checks. The system suite failed once of three runs with an email
import's blob not found, in antispam.rs; the same happened once in
purge.rs on the previous branch. Nothing here touches uploads; noted
for a separate look.
The schema conflicted as a binary file: taken from main and the one
edit here re-applied (sysComplianceGet after sysLegalHoldExport). The
import kept the permission count at 673, so the new id stays 673.
Retested on the merged tree in its own target directory: the
compliance and system suites pass. One earlier system run failed in
purge.rs (an imported blob not found) and didn't recur.
Personal-data catalog spec, §7 (settled 2026-09-28).
sysComplianceGet (673) sees the data inventory and compliance
overview: superusers and, for their tenant's slice, tenant
administrators, by default and through the one-time grants on servers
that already have their roles stored.
A Compliance Officer role at server level holds it with reading and
exporting the audit log, placing, widening, releasing and exporting
legal holds, seeing account locks, and reading accounts, lists,
domains, tenants and roles. It changes no server setting, creates or
deletes no account, and can't shorten audit retention.
A tenant's accounts can hold only roles of their own tenant (MT-3), so
the tenant role is one "Compliance Officer" role per tenant, without
holds (LH-13): made once for every tenant a server has, and whenever a
tenant is created. While nobody holds it, it is removed with its tenant
so it doesn't block the delete, and put back if the delete is refused
for another reason. Both roles carry a user's own permissions too,
since roles given to a person replace the default user role, which a
tenant's accounts can't hold anyway.
Every server makes these once, new or existing -- the built-in roles
are only made on a server with none -- and records each under P c, so a
role an administrator deletes stays deleted.
Tested: unit tests (neither role changes a setting beyond a user's
own; holds for the server's officer only; per-place records); a new
compliance system test (one server-level role; an officer reads the
audit log, places and releases a hold, and is refused a setting, an
account and audit retention; a tenant gets its role, whose holder reads
the tenant's audit log and no holds; a tenant with an unused role is
deleted and the role goes with it); the system, audit, legal hold,
account lock and SCIM suites; fork checks. The directory suite needs
its LDAP container and wasn't run here.
Personal-data catalog spec, default D1 (settled 2026-09-28): log files
were never deleted. inbuxa:LogSettings.keepForDays says how many days
rotated log files are kept; unset (null) keeps every file, as before,
and a new install sets 30 days.
It is a fork-owned setting, stored under T + l as audit retention is,
not a field on x:TracerLog: that object is also stored inside
x:Bootstrap with a field after it, so a new field would change
x:Bootstrap's stored format. Server-level, with the tracers'
permissions (sysTracerGet, sysTracerUpdate); changes are in the audit
log, before and after.
Log files are local, so every node deletes its own: hourly, and at once
when the setting changes on that node. Only regular files named
<prefix>.<something> in each enabled log tracer's directory, last
changed more than the limit ago, are removed; the file being written is
never that old, and nothing else in the directory is touched. Minimum
one day. The catalog classifies inbuxa:LogSettings and points the log
file's retention at it.
Tested: unit tests for the file rule (only this log's old files; the
current file, other files and directories stay) and a purge on disk;
the system suite, which reads, sets, refuses zero, restores null and
checks the audit records; fork checks.
The schema, which both sides changed, merged as JSON with no conflicts.
The personal-data catalog (#83) gains upstream's new x:DnsServerPowerDns:
nothing personal but its API key, like the other DNS providers.
D1 becomes a fork-owned setting, as audit retention is, because a field
on x:TracerLog would change x:Bootstrap's stored format. D5 waits for
the v0.16.24 import's reworked spam-rules loader.
Personal-data catalog spec, defaults D2, D3, D4, D6 and D7 (settled
2026-09-28, new installs only):
- D2: automatic IP bans expire after 30 days instead of never; D3:
spam training samples, whole messages, are kept 90 days instead of
180; D4: Pyzor, which sends a digest of each message's text to a
public server, is off; D6: delivery history is kept 14 days instead
of 30. Written on the first boot of a new install only -- one with no
roles yet, the same test the built-in roles use -- by reading each
singleton, setting these fields and writing it back whole. A server
with roles keeps its settings, saved or default.
- D7: a webhook created from now on starts with the include policy and
no events, so it sends nothing until events are chosen (Rust default
and schema default, marked). The registry stores every field, so
existing webhooks keep their policy.
- Expired bans are also removed by the daily data clean-up. They
already stopped blocking and were deleted when settings next loaded;
a server that seldom reloads kept them.
D1 (log retention) and D5 (the hashed-address blocklist off) are held,
and the spec says why: x:TracerLog is stored inside x:Bootstrap with a
field after it, so adding one changes that object's stored format; and
the spam-rules loader D5 touches is being reworked by the v0.16.24
import. The spec also corrects finding 3: expired bans were deleted on
settings load; bans were permanent only because no period is set.
Tested: unit tests for the new-install values and that everything else
in each singleton stays; the system suite, whose security test now
purges an expired ban and checks its record is gone; the telemetry
test; common's unit tests; fork checks.
Phase 2 of the personal-data catalog spec.
resources/privacy/catalog.toml classifies every object in the schema
(316) and inbuxa's own JMAP objects (12): each property that can hold
personal data, with its categories, and for objects that hold any,
whose data it is, where it lives, its scope and what bounds its
retention (a named setting where there is one). Twenty sources that
are no object -- the log file, exporters, webhooks, spam lookups, the
Explain cache, relays and hooks, push, legacy-use records -- carry the
same facts plus the settings that turn them on, whether the data
leaves the host, and the code that writes it. Classifications of
objects that hold data about people are from the spec's source map;
the rest are typed from the schema alone (address, IP, secret).
tools/fork/privacy-check.py fails CI when an object or inbuxa object
has no entry, when a property the schema types as an address, IP or
secret is left to its object's default, when an entry names an
object, property, setting or code path that is gone, or when it uses
a word outside the catalog's vocabulary. --unlisted prints starting
entries. strip.py's report gains "Unclassified in the privacy
catalog": objects and fields new in an import and not classified,
informational like the Enterprise flags.
Tested: 13 unit tests (tools/fork/tests): the check passes on this
tree; fails on an unclassified object, an address hidden behind a
default, a secret in a set or object reference, stale properties,
objects, settings and code paths, an unlisted inbuxa object and a
word outside the vocabulary; --unlisted's entries; and the strip
report on a synthetic import. The check and the tests run in the
fork-checks job.
The per-protocol switches (#79) added legacyAllowed to the account's
urn:inbuxa:jmap capability, but this expectation wasn't updated, so
jmap_tests stopped here and the suites after it never ran.
A webhook has a level (info by default) that nothing read: its events
were chosen by its list and policy alone. With the default policy,
exclude, and nothing listed, that meant every event type, including
smtp.raw-input (the raw SMTP bytes, DATA included) and the model's
reply to the spam classifier. The docs suggest a webhook to pass the
audit log to a SIEM; set up that way it would have received whole
messages. Found by the personal-data catalog investigation (finding 1).
Now an include list is sent as named, whatever each event's level:
naming an event is the choice. Otherwise a webhook gets only events at
or above its level, as a tracer does, and never a protocol's raw input
or output (IMAP, SMTP, POP3, ManageSieve, delivery, milter), which
carries whole messages and credentials; those go out only when named.
Tested: unit tests for the rule (level, raw I/O only when named, a
named event below the level, custom event levels, a webhook's own
errors); the telemetry system test, whose webhook names debug-level
connection events and still receives them.
Eight conflicted files resolved, plus the lock file and the schema:
- crates/services/src/task_manager/spam_classifier.rs: upstream's rules
update now replaces existing rules, DNSBL servers, lookups and file
extensions, keeping only whether each is on. Taken, with one difference:
an object an admin edited is kept as it is. Every object an update writes
is fingerprinted (content without `enable`, SHA-256, stored under
SUBSPACE_INBUXA "Sf"), and only one that still matches is replaced.
Scores are never replaced, as upstream has it. The AU-1.10 summary record
now names what was added, replaced and kept, and the bundled rules are
marked applied only when the update fully succeeded, so a failure runs
again on the next start. The marker becomes "3.0.2+2", which runs the
update once on upgrade to fingerprint every rule still as bundled.
- crates/common/src/network/autoconfig/autodiscover.rs: upstream's rewrite
(implicit TLS first, labeled SSL), with the per-protocol switches (LP-7,
LP-14a) passed in as a filter.
- crates/store/src/backend/mysql/{search,write}.rs: upstream's chunked
deletes (no unbounded first DELETE, stop on a short chunk, halve the
chunk on the new chunk-too-large errors) inside the fork's query timeout.
- crates/smtp/src/lib.rs: the fork's queue spawn kept. It already fixed the
stall upstream fixes here (a node without outboundMta stops accepting
mail at about 1024 queued messages), and follows role changes live.
- crates/jmap/src/registry/mapping/bootstrap.rs: the log path stays
/var/log/inbuxa/; upstream's PowerDNS mapping taken.
- crates/main/Cargo.toml: the AGPL-only license kept, version 0.16.24.
- tests/src/jmap/principal/get.rs: the fork's capabilities kept.
- resources/schema/schema.json.gz: merged as JSON; upstream relabeled the
vendor Sieve extensions "(Stalwart)", kept as "(vnd.inbuxa)".
- Cargo.lock: upstream's, with the fork's crates added by Cargo.
Also:
- tests/src/smtp/inbound/spam_rules_kept.rs: an edited rule survives an
update, an unedited one is updated, rules from before fingerprints are
handled, and the audit summary says so. Upstream's own spam_rules test
passes unchanged.
- tests/src/smtp/reporting/reschedule.rs moves to port 19058; upstream's
new spam_rules test took 19057.
- tools/fork/renames.py renames the "(Stalwart)" labels and the default
log path, so neither conflicts again.
- tools/fork/notice-check.py compares against the newest snapshot in the
checked-out history instead of the upstream branch head, so moving the
branch no longer fails other open pull requests.
- tests/src/directory/issuer.rs (since v0.16.23) stays out, and is on the
build check's known list: it tests issuer-based directory routing, which
the fork doesn't have (DIR-2).
- Strip report: docs/fork/strip-reports/v0.16.24.{md,json}.
Upstream commit: af37a234981722493b74623a983581691d2b70b6
Enterprise-only files removed or emptied: 63
Enterprise-only snippets removed: 118 in 50 files

Third-party code: 14 files, 0 not in THIRD-PARTY.md
Renamed identifiers: 62 in 18 files
Verification: clean
The same Enterprise footprint as v0.16.23. The build check fails only on
tests/src/directory/issuer.rs, unchanged since v0.16.23: it calls a helper
from upstream's Enterprise-only OIDC test, and tests issuer-based directory
routing, an Enterprise feature. main has never carried it.
The sidecar catalog; the Compliance Officer places and releases holds;
the Tenant Compliance Officer is built now; shortening audit retention
is recorded and surfaced, not gated on a second person; all seven
new-install defaults, in Phase 3; the webhook finding fixed now as a
bug; snapshots kept as long as the audit log.
Phase 1 of the GDPR auditor foundation: the investigation and the
design, committed before anything is built (SPEC.md §3 rule 3).
It maps every place the server stores or sends personal data found
in the code at de275ba, each with its categories, whose data it is,
the settings that control it, what bounds its retention, where it
lives, whether it leaves the host, its scope and the code that writes
it, and the default in a new install. It proposes a sidecar catalog
(resources/privacy/catalog.toml), since the schema and registry code
are upstream's generated output with no generator here; a CI check
modeled on name-check.py; a strip-report section; a read-only
inventory method with dated snapshots; a Compliance Officer role; and
the Compliance navigation with Overview and Data inventory.
Findings worth reading on their own: webhooks ignore levels and, at
their defaults, receive every event including raw SMTP input; log
files are never deleted; automatic bans never expire; some of the
fork's records outlive the account; spam training keeps whole
messages for 180 days; traces are on in a new install; the spam
filter sends IPs, domains, hashed addresses and body digests to
third-party services by default.
Proposed default changes (new installs only) and seven open questions
are for John to decide. No default is changed.
Per-protocol legacy switches (#79) and the hold export's exceptions
list (#75). The prepared Explain answers are relabeled for this
release; 706 carry over unchanged.
The legacy-protocols switch was all or nothing. An operator can now stop
POP3 and keep IMAP: each of IMAP, POP3 and ManageSieve has its own
switch, server-wide on inbuxa:ProtocolPolicy and per tenant on
inbuxa:TenantProtocolPolicy (properties imap, pop3, manageSieve).
legacyProtocols stays as the kill-all: setting it sets all three, and it
reads "disabled" exactly when all three are off. A policy stored before
this has only legacyProtocols and reads as all three at that value, so
existing servers and tenants carry over unchanged. In one /set, a
protocol named beside legacyProtocols overrides it.
SMTP submission keeps no switch of its own: sign-in over it is refused
only when all three are off, as the single switch did (LP-6), so
turning one protocol off never stops a mail app sending. For a tenant,
the server's switches and the tenant's count together.
Server-wide, a change closes the listeners of whatever is now off and
puts back the saved listeners of whatever is on again, both in one
change if asked; listeners of a protocol still off stay saved. Sign-in,
autoconfig, autodiscover, PACC (now prepared once per combination) and
the suggested DNS records all follow each protocol separately. A tenant
may turn a protocol on only while the server has it on (LP-9), and the
refusal names which. The JMAP session adds legacyAllowed, the protocols
still allowed for the account; legacyProtocols there keeps its meaning
for older webmail builds. Events name the switches ("pop3 disabled"),
and audit before/after reads every switch even from an older policy.
Tested: unit tests for the switches, the old-policy reading, the
server/tenant combination, the tenant refusal and listener refusal; and
tests/e2e/legacy_protocols.py against a running server, all 100 checks,
including new ones: POP3 alone off closes only its port and refuses
only its sign-in while IMAP and sending go on; only POP3 stops being
advertised; one change closes IMAP and reopens POP3; a tenant turns
POP3 off for itself, and can't turn IMAP on while the server has it off.
Cloudflare's DMARC report intake rejects every aggregate report we
send with "555 5.7.1 invalid_report_schema". Bisected against the live
endpoint: the only element it objects to is <disposition>pass</disposition>,
the value RFC 9990 added for mail that passed DMARC under an enforcing
policy. The RFC 9990 namespace, <np>, <discovery_method>, <testing> and
a missing <pct> are all accepted, and a report that differs only in
using "none" there goes through.
"none" (no action taken) is valid under both RFC 9990 and RFC 7489 and
says the same thing to the reader, so reports now go out with it. The
stored report keeps "pass"; only the serialized copy changes.
An item the hold covers whose stored record or content can't be read
goes in exceptions.csv with the path it would have had and the reason,
rather than being left out silently. The file is always in the ZIP, so a
header-only one shows nothing was missed, and manifest.sha256 carries
its hash beside the manifest's.
inbuxa:HoldExport/set takes a hold, optionally some of the accounts it
covers, and a reason; the collection runs in the background and get
says when it's ready. The ZIP has, per account, mail as .eml under its
folders, calendars as .ics, contacts as .vcf, files as stored, and the
archived items the hold keeps under archived/; a manifest.csv gives each
entry's account, kind, folder, date, whether it was archived, size and
SHA-256, and manifest.sha256 hashes the manifest. Accounts the hold
doesn't cover are left out, and items outside its date range are too:
live mail by arrival, events by start, and archived items the same way,
so an export doesn't carry deleted items that only another hold keeps.
The finished file is a blob of whoever started the export, so only they
download it, and it lasts as long as any upload (uploadTtl). Exports
are records under the hold (SUBSPACE_INBUXA H/e): never changed or
destroyed, each with its status, counts, size and checksum. Starting
one needs sysLegalHoldExport, an active hold and a reason, and is
recorded in the audit log like the audit log's own export.
The build is in memory and capped at 2 GB; bigger holds fail with a
message saying so, and are split by picking accounts.
Tested: unit tests for safe ZIP names and the manifest and its hash;
the legal_hold system test, on RocksDB, PostgreSQL and MySQL, exports a
hold end to end (live and archived mail, the manifest's hash, an asked-
for account the hold doesn't cover left out) and checks the refusals
(no reason, a user without the permission, a released hold) and the
audit record; and by hand from the console on a local server. Not
covered by a test: the archived-item date range with two holds of
different ranges over one account.
hickory 0.26.3 rejects two kinds of valid answers, and outbound
delivery then retries those hosts until the message expires:
- A zone delegated beneath an unsigned zone (l.google.com under
google.com). Proving the delegation insecure needs an SOA record in
the DS reply, and public resolvers often leave it out. Every Google
MX host behind a signed MX record was unreachable.
- A signed CNAME to a signed name that lacks the queried type. The
NSEC denial is checked against the original name, not the target's.
On a bogus verdict, follow a signed CNAME and repeat the lookup at its
target; otherwise look up the name's zone and its parents, nearest
first. A zone that validates as unsigned means nothing below it can be
signed, so the plain resolver answers and the result is insecure. A
zone that validates as signed first leaves the verdict standing.
Legal holds (#70): a hold on people, groups, domains, tenants or the
whole server keeps everything it covers from being destroyed, by anyone,
until it's released; deleted accounts keep their data. Audit records
name accounts by their full address and holds by their case name. The
daily clean-up of expired archived items works again.
Prepared Explain answers relabeled for this release; no setting changed
since 2026.9.27.2, so all 706 carry over.
An account's or mailing list's name is only its local part, so the log
said "Account ken.gosling" where two domains could each have one; it
now says [email protected]. A change to a legal hold was
recorded under its id; the hold's current state is now read first, so
the record carries its case name and each change reads before/after.
inbuxa:LegalHold/get answers accountsCovered, itemsHeld and sizeHeld
when asked: the accounts a hold reaches now (deleted ones it keeps
included) and the archived items it keeps, with their size. Worked out
in one pass over accounts and archive, only for requests that name them.
Held items stay out of the user's quota, as all archived copies do
(LH-9).
Destroying a held account removes the login, as offboarding needs, but
keeps its data as a deleted account with no expiry, whether or not
undelete keeps accounts; its addresses stay reserved and its holds name
it from then on. Destroy-now refuses it, and its DestroyAccount task
defers itself while it's held or its time hasn't come. Holds placed or
released later freeze or free kept accounts in the same settle pass,
with 30 days' grace after the last release (LH-8, LH-10).
Placing or widening a hold freezes what's already archived in its scope
and range, its old deadline noted; releasing one gives each item no other
hold covers that deadline back, or release plus 30 days if later. One
pass over the archive does both and changes nothing twice (LH-6, LH-10,
LH-11). A held archived item can't be destroyed; restoring still can,
and the hold is named only to callers who may see holds (LH-7). Audit
records about a held account survive the purge (AU-7).
Fixes the daily clean-up of expired archived items (UD-13), which never
found any: the registry's unfiltered query reads an all-ids index that
archived items aren't in. Items are now walked account by account, kept
deleted accounts included. Expired items were still removed whenever
their account's archive was read.
Every way of deleting mail (JMAP, IMAP EXPUNGE, POP3, mailbox removal,
Trash emptying) and Sieve scripts, events, contacts and files now asks
how the account's deletions are kept: a hold keeps them with no expiry
(archivedUntil 9999-12-31), even with undelete off; otherwise undelete's
period applies as before (LH-4).
A hold's date range decides by the item's own date (LH-3). Mail is noted
as held at deletion and settled when it's archived, once its received
date is known; outside the range it gets undelete's deadline or isn't
kept. Events go by their start, with a day's slack for time zones;
recurring events, contacts, files and scripts are held whole.
A groupware item's note now stays until its archive succeeds, and a
failure retries the task instead of being logged and lost (LH-5).
A hold reaches an account by name, through any of its addresses'
domains, its groups or its tenant, as they are now, so an account added
to a held domain later is held too. An account that leaves a held
domain, group or tenant stays held: the registry write hook adds it to
the hold by name on every account change, whoever makes it (LH-2).
Server::holds_on answers for the deletion paths, from the store each
time so a hold binds every node at once.
inbuxa:LegalHold get/set places a hold on accounts, groups, domains,
tenants or the whole server, with an optional date range. A hold's range
and scope can only widen, a released hold is read-only, and none is ever
deleted. Placing, changing and releasing each need a reason and are
audited (LH-1, LH-3, LH-10, AU-12).
Permissions 669-672 (see, place, widen or release, export held data)
go to server administrators only; the tenant ceiling always strips them,
as it does Impersonate (LH-13). Schema: Compliance > Legal Holds.
What a hold keeps comes next, through the undelete hooks.
Also moves the lock expiry helpers below the lock module's imports.
Delegates reach the whole locked account (#68): its calendars, contacts
and files as well as its mail, even a kind it holds none of yet, and
writing delegates may add at the top of its Files.
Prepared Explain answers relabeled for this release; no setting changed
since 2026.9.27.1, so all 706 carry over.
A shared account refuses top-level folders, so an organize or full
delegate couldn't add anything to a locked account with no folders. A
delegate who may write now can, as the owner could; the reconcile after
the create grants it the new folder. Read delegates still can't (AL-6,
AL-7).
A delegate's token listed the locked account only for kinds of data it
held grants on, so one with no files (or no calendar) was refused to the
delegate outright: "You do not have access to account". The token now
lists the locked account for mail, calendars, contacts and files alike,
so an empty kind reads as empty. What the delegate may see or change is
still each container's grant (AL-7).
