Version 55 (October 18, 2021)
-----------------------------
Mail:
* "SMTPUTF8" is now disabled in Postfix. Because Dovecot still does not
support SMTPUTF8, incoming mail to internationalized addresses was
bouncing. This fixes incoming mail to internationalized domains (which
was probably working prior to v0.40), but it will prevent sending
outbound mail to addresses with internationalized local-parts.
* Upgraded to Roundcube 1.5.
Control panel:
* The control panel menus are now hidden before login, but now
non-admins can log in to access the mail and contacts/calendar
instruction pages.
* The login form now disables browser autocomplete in the two-factor
authentication code field.
* After logging in, the default page is now a fast-loading welcome page
rather than the slow-loading system status checks page.
* The backup retention period option now displays for B2 backup targets.
* The DNSSEC DS record recommendations are cleaned up and now recommend
changing records that use SHA1.
* The Munin monitoring pages no longer require a separate HTTP basic
authentication login and can be used if two-factor authentication is
turned on.
* Control panel logins are now tied to a session backend that allows
true logouts (rather than an encrypted cookie).
* Failed logins no longer directly reveal whether the email address
corresponds to a user account.
* Browser dark mode now inverts the color scheme.
Other:
* Fail2ban's IPv6 support is enabled.
* The mail log tool now doesn't crash if there are email addresess in
log messages with invalid UTF-8 characters.
* Additional nsd.conf files can be placed in /etc/nsd.conf.d.
By not advertising SMTPUTF8 support at the start, senders may opt to transmit recipient internationalized domain names in IDNA form instead, which will be deliverable.
Incoming mail with internationalized domains was probably working prior to our move to Ubuntu 18.04 when postfix's SMTPUTF8 support became enabled by default.
The previous commit is retained because Mail-in-a-Box users might prefer to keep SMTPUTF8 on for outbound mail, if they are not using internationalized domains for email, in which case the previous commit fixes the 'relay access denied' error even if the emails aren't deliverable.
When an email is received by Postfix using SMTPUTF8 and the recipient domain is a Unicode internationalized domain, it was failing to be delivered (bouncing with 'relay access denied') because our users and aliases tables only store ASCII (IDNA) forms of internationalized domains. In this commit, domain maps are added to the auto_aliases table from the Unicode form of each mail domain to its IDNA form, if those forms are different. The Postfix domains query is updated to look at the auto_aliases table now as well, since it is the only table with Unicode forms of the mail domains.
However, mail delivery is still not working since the Dovecot LMTP server does not support SMTPUTF8, and mail still bounces but with an error that SMTPUTF8 is not supported.
They really should never have been conflated with the user-provided aliases.
Update the postfix alias map to query the automatically generated aliases with lowest priority.
Software updates:
* Upgraded Nextcloud from 17.0.6 to 20.0.1 (with Contacts from 3.3.0 to 3.4.1 and Calendar from 2.0.3 to 2.1.2)
* Upgraded Roundcube to version 1.4.9.
Mail:
* The MTA-STA max_age value was increased to the normal one week.
Control Panel:
* Two-factor authentication can now be enabled for logins to the control panel. However, keep in mind that many online services (including domain name registrars, cloud server providers, and TLS certificate providers) may allow an attacker to take over your account or issue a fraudulent TLS certificate with only access to your email address, and this new two-factor authentication does not protect access to your inbox. It therefore remains very important that user accounts with administrative email addresses have strong passwords.
* TLS certificate expiry dates are now shown in ISO8601 format for clarity.

--------------------------
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.

thanks @downtownallday
* this invalidates all user_keys after TOTP status is changed for user
* after changing TOTP state, a login is required
* due to the forced login, we can't and don't need to store the code used for setup in `mru_code`
* hmac.compare_digest() expects arguments of type string, make sure we don't pass None
* Currently, this cannot happen but we might not want to store `mru_token` during setup
* this allows implementation of other mfa schemes in the future (webauthn)
* also makes key management easier and enforces one totp credentials per user on db-level
These subdomains/records are for automatic configuration of mail clients, but if there are no user accounts on a domain, there is no need to publish a DNS record, provision a TLS certificate, or create an nginx server config block.
-------------------------
Security fixes:
* A security issue was discovered in rsync backups. If you have enabled rsync backups, the file `id_rsa_miab` may have been copied to your backup destination. This file can be used to access your backup destination. If the file was copied to your backup destination, we recommend that you delete the file on your backup destination, delete `/root/.ssh/id_rsa_miab` on your Mail-in-a-Box, then re-run Mail-in-a-Box setup, and re-configure your SSH public key at your backup destination according to the instructions in the Mail-in-a-Box control panel.
* Brute force attack prevention was missing for the managesieve service.
Setup:
* Nextcloud was not upgraded properly after restoring Mail-in-a-Box from a backup from v0.40 or earlier.
Mail:
* Upgraded Roundcube to 1.3.10.
* Fetch an updated whitelist for greylisting on a monthly basis to reduce the number of delayed incoming emails.
Control panel:
* When using secondary DNS, it is now possible to specify a subnet range with the `xfr:` option.
* Fixed an issue when the secondary DNS option is used and the secondary DNS hostname resolves to multiple IP addresses.
* Fix a bug in how a backup configuration error is shown.
