Doesn't seem like 2 minutes is a problem, but 4 minutes seems better. A little less bandwidth, possibly less battery usage (though we don't have evidence that's actually true), and the interval should be shorter than any peer timeouts that might occur due to inactivity

* check that the PUBLIC_IP is not listed in zen.spamhaus.org
* check that the PRIMARY_HOSTNAME is not listed in dbl.spamhaus.org
* check that a connection to Google's MTA is working (i.e. we're not on a residential network that blocks outbound port 25)
Rather than pass `-r /dev/random` to ldns-keygen (it was `-r /dev/urandom`),
don't pass `-r` at all since /dev/random is the default.
Merges branch 'master' of github.com:pysiak/mailinabox
/dev/random should be used for crypto-grade RNG.
To make sure use of /dev/random doesn't stall due to lack of entropy, install haveged which fills the entropy pool with sources such as network traffic, key strokes, etc.

This lets roundcube's manageseive plugin do cool things like vacation responses.
Also:
* Run the spam filtering sieve script out of a global sieve file that we'll place in /etc/dovecot. It is no longer necessary to create per-user sieve files for this. Remove them with a new migration. Remove the code that created them.
* Corrects the spam script. Backslashes were double-escaped probably because this script started embedded within the bash script. Not sure how this was working until now.
this adapts work by @h8h in #103
As the scripts keep growing, it's time to split them up to
keep them understandable.
This splits mail.sh into mail-postfix.sh, mail-dovecot.sh,
and mail-users.sh, which has all of the user database-related
configurations shared by Dovecot and Postfix. Also from
spamassassin.sh the core sieve configuration is moved into
mail-dovecot.sh and the virtual transport setting is moved
into mail-postfix.sh.
Also revising one of the sed scripts in mail-dovecot to
not insert a new additional # at the start of a line each
time the script is run.
Intended to be the simplest auth possible: every time the service
starts, a random key is written to `/var/lib/mailinabox/api.key`. In
order to authenticate to the service, the client must pass the contents
of `api.key` in an HTTP basic auth header. In this way, users who do not
have read access to that file are not able to communicate with the
service.
Duplicity will manage the process of creating incremental backups for us.
Although duplicity can both encrypt & copy files to a remote host, I really
don't like PGP and so I don't want to use that.
Instead, we'll back up to a local directory unencrypted, then manually
encrypt the full & incremental backup files. Synchronizing the encrypted
backup directory to a remote host is a TODO.
Testing showed that it may take a few seconds for the default values to
populate. If the help text is shown, “Enter the public IP address…,”
but no prompt is shown, the user may get confused and try to enter the
IP address before mailinabox has had a chance to figure out and display
a suitable default value.
This re-implements part of PR #69 by @mkropat, who wrote:
By default, Postfix adds a Received header — on all mail that you send —
that lists the IP of the device you sent the mail from. This feature is
great if you're a mail provider and you need to debug why one user is
having sending issues. This feature is not so great if you run your own
mail server and you don't want every recipient of every email you send
to know the device and IP you sent the email from.
To limit this filtering to outgoing mail only, we apply the filters just
to the submission port. See these guides [1] [2] for more context.

Addresses #3
Added support by adding parallel code wherever `$PUBLIC_IP` was used.
Providing an IPv6 address is completely optional.
Playing around on my IPv6-enabled mail server revealed that — before
this change — mailinabox might try to use an IPv6 address as the value
for `$PUBLIC_IP`, which wouldn't work out well.
* using it to enable the Postfix submission service
* per @mkropat's suggestion in #69, set an option to distinguish submission from regular smpd in syslog by giving submission a new name (doing this here to test that editconf is working right on master.cf)
Postfix, Dovecot, and nginx all read the key file while they're running
as root — before dropping permissions — so no authorization is needed on
the private key file beyond being root-readable.
Default IP+hostname values were incorrect for my VPS provider. I
improved the detection, which should give correct results results for
almost any provider. Specific issues addressed:
- icanhazip.com detection was only enabled in non-interactive mode
- `hostname` is by convention a short (non-fqdn) name in Ubuntu
- `hostname --fqdn` fails if provider does not pouplate `hosts` file
- `hostname -i` fails if provider does not populate `hosts` file
- `curl` without `--fail` will someday return crazy results
when icanhazip.com returns 500 errors or similar
* adding a Vagrantfile
* in a non-interactive setup like this, create the user's first email account for them
* let the machine auto-detect its IP address using http://icanhazip.com/
* use our own justtesting.email domain to provision a subdomain for users so they can quickly get started
* Created a new Python/flask-based management daemon.
* Moved the mail user management core code from tools/mail.py to the new daemon.
* tools/mail.py is a wrapper around the daemon and can be run as a non-root user.
* Adding a new initscript for the management daemon.
* Moving dns_update.sh to the management daemon, called via curl'ing the daemon's API.
This also now runs the DNS update after mail users and aliases are added/removed,
which sets up new domains' DNS as needed.
