The submission port began offering SSLv3.
With `encrypt`, the smtpd_tls_protocols option is ignored and smtpd_tls_mandatory_protocols must be set instead.

Mail:
* Spam checking is now performed on messages larger than the previous limit of 64KB.
* POP3S is now enabled (port 995).
* Roundcube is updated to version 1.1.1.
* Minor security improvements (more mail headers with user agent info are anonymized; crypto settings were tightened).
ownCloud:
* Downloading files you uploaded to ownCloud broke because of a change in ownCloud 8.
DNS:
* Internationalized Domain Names (IDNs) should now work in email. If you had custom DNS or custom web settings for internationalized domains, check that they are still working.
* It is now possible to set multiple TXT and other types of records on the same domain in the control panel.
* The custom DNS API was completely rewritten to support setting multiple records of the same type on a domain. Any existing client code using the DNS API will have to be rewritten. (Existing code will just get 404s back.)
* On some systems the `nsd` service failed to start if network inferfaces were not ready.
System / Control Panel:
* In order to guard against misconfiguration that can lead to domain control validation hijacking, email addresses that begin with admin, administrator, postmaster, hostmaster, and webmaster can no longer be used for (new) mail user accounts, and aliases for these addresses may direct mail only to the box's administrator(s).
* Backups now use duplicity's built-in gpg symmetric AES256 encryption rather than my home-brewed encryption. Old backups will be incorporated inside the first backup after this update but then deleted from disk (i.e. your backups from the previous few days will be backed up).
* There was a race condition between backups and the new nightly status checks.
* The control panel would sometimes lock up with an unnecessary loading indicator.
* You can no longer delete your own account from the control panel.
Setup:
* All Mail-in-a-Box release tags are now signed on github, instructions for verifying the signature are added to the README, and the integrity of some packages downloaded during setup is now verified against a SHA1 hash stored in the tag itself.
* Bugs in first user account creation were fixed.
Even though SMTP (on port 25) is typically opportunistic and a MitM attack can't be prevented, we may as well only offer ciphers that provide some level of security. If a client is so old or misconfigured that it doesn't support newer ciphers, it should hopefully fall back to a non-TLS connection.
Postfix's default was basically anything goes (anonymous and 40-bit ciphers!). Google's MTA's only offer ciphers at 112 bits at greater, and this change approximates that with Postfix's "medium" setting.
Fixes#371
This disallows aNULL and other bad ciphers in the Postfix submission server.
I missed an option in 45e93f7dcc recommended by the blog post I was reading.
Fixes#389.
Prior to nsd 4.0.1-1ubuntu0.1, we had to create the nsd user before installing the nsd package.
This was our issue #25 (see 4e6037c0e1, c7e1e29d) and I reported it upstream at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nsd/+bug/1311886. The new package was published by Ubuntu on 2015-01-15 so this work-around is no longer needed.
I changed my mind. In 1bf8f1991f I allowed Unicode domain names to go into the database. I thought that was nice because it's what the user *means*. But it's not how the web works. Web and DNS were working, but mail wasn't. Postfix (as shipped with Ubuntu 14.04 without support for SMTPUTF8) exists in an ASCII-only world. When it goes to the users/aliases table, it queries in ASCII (IDNA) only and had no hope of delivering mail if the domain was in full Unicode in the database. I was thinking ahead to SMTPUTF8, where we *could* put Unicode in the database (though that would prevent IDNA-encoded addressing from being deliverable) not realizing it isn't well supported yet anyway.
It's IDNA that goes on the wire in most places anyway (SMTP without SMTPUTF8 (and therefore how Postfix queries our users/aliases tables), DNS zone files, nginx config, CSR 'CN' field, X509 Common Name and Subject Alternative Names fields), so we should really be talking in terms of IDNA (i.e. ASCII).
This partially reverts commit 1bf8f1991f, where I added a lot of Unicode=>IDNA conversions when writing configuration files. Instead I'm doing Unicode=>IDNA before email addresses get into the users/aliases table. Now we assume the database uses IDNA-encoded ASCII domain names. When adding/removing aliases, addresses are converted to ASCII (w/ IDNA). User accounts must be ASCII-only anyway because of Dovecot's auth limitations, so we don't do any IDNA conversion (don't want to change the user's login info behind their back!). The aliases control panel page converts domains back to Unicode for display to be nice. The status checks converts the domains to Unicode just for the output headings.
A migration is added to convert existing aliases with Unicode domains into IDNA. Any custom DNS or web settings with Unicode may need to be changed.
Future support for SMTPUTF8 will probably need to add columns in the users/aliases table so that it lists both IDNA and Unicode forms.
CHANGELOG
=========
v0.08 (April 1, 2015)
---------------------
Mail:
* The Roundcube vacation_sieve plugin by @arodier is now installed to make it easier to set vacation auto-reply messages from within Roundcube.
* Authentication-Results headers for DMARC, added in v0.07, were mistakenly added for outbound mail --- that's now removed.
* The Trash folder is now created automatically for new mail accounts, addressing a Roundcube error.
DNS:
* Custom DNS TXT records were not always working and they can now override the default SPF, DKIM, and DMARC records.
System:
* ownCloud updated to version 8.0.2.
* Brute-force SSH and IMAP login attempts are now prevented by properly configuring fail2ban.
* Status checks are run each night and any changes from night to night are emailed to the box administrator (the first user account).
Control panel:
* The new check that system services are running mistakenly checked that the Dovecot Managesieve service is publicly accessible. Although the service binds to the public network interface we don't open the port in ufw. On some machines it seems that ufw blocks the connection from the status checks (which seems correct) and on some machines (mine) it doesn't, which is why I didn't notice the problem.
* The current backup chain will now try to predict how many days until it is deleted (always at least 3 days after the next full backup).
* The list of aliases that forward to a user are removed from the Mail Users page because when there are many alises it is slow and times-out.
* Some status check errors are turned into warnings, especially those that might not apply if External DNS is used.
I added OpenDMARC's milter in fba4d4702e. But this started
setting Authentication-Results headers on outbound mail with failures. Not sure why it
fails at that point, but it shouldn't be set at all. The failure might cause recipients
to junk the mail. See #358.
This commit removes the milter from the SMTP submission (port 587) listener.
If the migration file is missing but the storage directory exists, assume this is a fresh directory -- don't bother trying to migrate, and do write the migration file with the current migration ID.
cc333b3965 worked for fresh systems, but if the system already had the daemon running the api.key file would already exist and the test would pass to early. Now removing the file first.
fixes#322
/proc/meminfo reports kibibytes. Lower the minimum memory requirement so that 768 MB (not MiB) also is allowed.
Report the detected memory in MB (not KiB), to be clearer.
Fixes#289.
