v0.50 (September 25, 2020)
--------------------------
Setup:
* When upgrading from versions before v0.40, setup will now warn that ownCloud/Nextcloud data cannot be migrated rather than failing the installation.
Mail:
* An MTA-STS policy for incoming mail is now published (in DNS and over HTTPS) when the primary hostname and email address domain both have a signed TLS certificate installed, allowing senders to know that an encrypted connection should be enforced.
* The per-IP connection limit to the IMAP server has been doubled to allow more devices to connect at once, especially with multiple users behind a NAT.
DNS:
* autoconfig and autodiscover subdomains and CalDAV/CardDAV SRV records are no longer generated for domains that don't have user accounts since they are unnecessary.
* IPv6 addresses can now be specified for secondary DNS nameservers in the control panel.
TLS:
* TLS certificates are now provisioned in groups by parent domain to limit easy domain enumeration and make provisioning more resilient to errors for particular domains.
Control Panel:
* The control panel API is now fully documented at https://mailinabox.email/api-docs.html.
* User passwords can now have spaces.
* Status checks for automatic subdomains have been moved into the section for the parent domain.
* Typo fixed.
Web:
* The default web page served on fresh installations now adds the `noindex` meta tag.
* The HSTS header is revised to also be sent on non-success responses.
- The MIAB version check regularly fails at 03:00, presumably because a
large portion of installations is checking mailinabox.email at the same
time.
- At installation time, the time of the nightly clock is configured to
run at a random minute after 03:00, but before 04:00.
- Users might expect the nightly tasks to be over at a certain time and
run their own custom tasks afterwards. This could thus interfere with
custom backup routines.
- This breaks reproducibility of the installation process.
- Users might also be surprised by the nightly task time changing after
updating MIAB.
The function apt_add_repository_to_unattended_upgrades is defined
but never called anywhere. It appears that automatic apt updates
are handled in system.sh where the file /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/02periodic
is created. The last call was removed in bbfa01f33a.

Because Mailman reformats headers it breaks DKIM signatures. SPF also does
not apply in mailing lists. This together causes DMARC to fail and mark the
email as invalid. This fixes DKIM signatures for Mailman-based mailing lists
and makes sure DMARC test is passed.
A minimal Ubuntu server installation might not have universe enabled by
default. By adding it, we ensure we can install packages only available
in universe, such as python3-pip
