if files {webmail,webaccount,webadmin}.{css,js} exist in the configdir (where
the mox.conf file lives), their contents are included in the web apps.
the webmail now uses css variables, mostly for colors. so you can write a
custom webmail.css that changes the variables, e.g.:
:root {
--color: blue
}
you can also look at css class names and override their styles.
in the future, we may want to make some css variables configurable in the
per-user settings in the webmail. should reduce the number of variables first.
any custom javascript is loaded first. if it defines a global function
"moxBeforeDisplay", that is called each time a page loads (after
authentication) with the DOM element of the page content as parameter. the
webmail is a single persistent page. this can be used to make some changes to
the DOM, e.g. inserting some elements. we'll have to see how well this works in
practice. perhaps some patterns emerge (e.g. adding a logo), and we can make
those use-cases easier to achieve.
helps partially with issue #114, and based on questions from laura-lilly on
matrix.
the pointer events for moving the mouse would be consumed by the iframe. that
broke resizing of the compose popup. we now disable pointerevents on the main
ui when we are dragging the corner of the compose popup.
this is similar to an earlier change about the draggable split bar between the
message list and the message view (when showing an html message).
we kept the "save draft" promise, and would wait for it again for other
operations (eg close, save again, send), which wouldn't make progress.
can easily be reproduced by saving a message with a control character in an
address or the subject. saving the draft will fail.

before this change, when archiving, we would move all messages from the thread
that are in the same mailbox as that of the response message to the archive
mailbox. so if the message that was being responsed to was already in the
archive mailbox, the message would be moved from archive mailbox to archive
mailbox, resulting in an error.
with this change, when archiving, we move the thread messages that are in the
same mailbox as is currently open (independent of the mailbox the message lives
in, a common situation in the threading view). if there is no open mailbox
(search results), we still use the mailbox of the message being responded to as
reference.
with this new approach, we won't get errors moving a message to an archive
mailbox when it's already there. well, you can still get that error, but then
you've got the archive mailbox open, or you're in a search result and
responding to an archived message. the error should at least help understand
that nothing is happening.
we are only moving the messages from one active/reference mailbox because we
don't want to move messages from the thread that are in the Sent mailbox, and
we also don't want to move duplicate messages (cross-posts to mailing lists)
that are in other mailboxes. moving only the messages from the current active
mailbox seems safe, and should do what is what users would expect most of the
time.
for issue #233 by mattfbacon, thanks for reporting!
when we send a list of messages from the mox backend to the js frontend, we
include a parsed form of the "initial" message: the one we immediately show,
typically the top-most (unread) message. however, if that message could not be
parsed (due to invalid header syntax), we would fail the entire operation of
loading the view.
with this change, we simply don't return a parsed form of an initial message if
we cannot parse it. that will cause the webmail frontend to not select &
display a message immediately. if you then try to open the message, you'll
still get an error message as before. but at least the view has been loaded,
and you can open the raw message to inspect the contents.

these singleusetokens can be redeemed once. so when you see it in the logs, it
can't be used again. they are short-lived anyway.
this change should help prevent me periodically investigating token handling...
before, we would just say "session expired". now we say "session expired (after
12 hours inactivity)" (for admin) or "session expired (after 24 hours
inactivity)" for account/webmail. for unknown sessions in the admin interface,
we also explain that server restarts and 10 more new sessions can be the
reason.
for issue #202 by ally9335
since we have more of our own styling (probably since dark mode), we weren't
indicating anymore that a button was disabled. this actually only applies to
the button for the current mailbox of a message, when attempting to move it.
we now don't show any hover effects in that case, and we show the button
semitransparent.
as they occur in From/To headers, for example: "From:
=?iso-8859-2?Q?Krist=FDna?= <k@example.com>". we are using net/mail to parse
such headers. most address-parsing functions in that package will only decode
charsets utf-8, iso-8859-1 and us-ascii. we have to be careful to always use
net/mail.AddressParser with a WordDecoder that understands more that the
basics.
for issue #204 by morki, thanks for reporting!
some emails have text and html versions. the html can have several logo images.
and there may be a pdf attached. when gathering attachments to show in webmail,
the pdf would come last. it could happen the logo images would get a link to
click, and the pdf would be behind the "more ..." button. by putting
"multipart/mixed" files before the "multipart/related" in the list, it's more
likely that useful files can be clicked immediately, and unimportant logo files
are behind the "more"-button.
before, the iframe was consuming the mouse events, preventing the dragging to
the right from working properly. the workaround was to drag over the area with
the header, above the message iframe.
with this change, we disable pointer events over the entire right area, which
includes the iframe.
for issue #186 by morki, thanks for reporting and providing sample favicons.
generated by the mentioned generator at favicon.io, with the ubuntu font and a
fuchsia-like color.
the favicon is served for listeners/domains that have the
admin/account/webmail/webapi endpoints enabled, i.e. user-facing. the mta-sts,
autoconfig, etc urls don't serve the favicon.
admins can create webhandler routes to serve another favicon. these webhandler
routes are evaluted before the favicon route (a "service handler").
otherwise, in dark mode, the plain text iframe content would be black text on
the white background of the iframe as set by webmail. i can't find a way to set
the content text on the iframe that contains it.
per listener, you could enable the admin/account/webmail/webapi handlers. but
that would serve those services on their configured paths (/admin/, /,
/webmail/, /webapi/) on all domains mox would be webserving, including any
non-mail domains. so your www.example/admin/ would be serving the admin web
interface, with no way to disabled that.
with this change, the admin interface is only served on requests to (based on
Host header):
- ip addresses
- the listener host name (explicitly configured in the listener, with fallback
to global hostname)
- "localhost" (for ssh tunnel/forwarding scenario's)
the account/webmail/webapi interfaces are served on the same domains as the
admin interface, and additionally:
- the client settings domains, as optionally configured in each Domain in
domains.conf. typically "mail.<yourdomain>".
this means the internal services are no longer served on other domains
configured in the webserver, e.g. www.example.org/admin/ will not be handled
specially.
the order of evaluation of routes/services is also changed:
before this change, the internal handlers would always be evaluated first.
with this change, only the system handlers for
MTA-STS/autoconfig/ACME-validation will be evaluated first. then the webserver
handlers. and finally the internal services (admin/account/webmail/webapi).
this allows an admin to configure overrides for some of the domains (per
hostname-matching rules explained above) that would normally serve these
services.
webserver handlers can now be configured that pass the request to an internal
service: in addition to the existing static/redirect/forward config options,
there is now an "internal" config option, naming the service
(admin/account/webmail/webapi) for handling the request. this allows enabling
the internal services on custom domains.
for issue #160 by TragicLifeHu, thanks for reporting!
bstore was updated to v0.0.6 to add this logging.
this simplifies some of the db-handling code in mtastsdb,tlsrptdb,dmarcdb. we
now call the package-level Init() and Close() in all tests properly.
- keep them on the right side of the window (more important now that we can resize)
- merge the close & cancel buttons into a close button, with a popup asking what to do for changes not saved as draft.
this started with looking into the dark mode of PR #163 by mattfbacon. it's a
very good solution, especially for the amount of code. while looking into dark
mode, some common problems with inverting colors are:
- box-shadow start "glowing" which isn't great. likewise, semitransparent
layers would become brighter, not darker.
- while popups/overlays in light mode just stay the same white, in dark mode
they should become lighter than the regular content because box shadows don't
give enough contrast in dark mode.
while looking at adding explicit styles for dark mode, it turns out that's
easier when we work more with css rules/classes instead of inline styles (so we
can use the @media rule).
so we now also create css rules instead of working with inline styles a lot.
benefits:
- creating css rules is useful for items that repeat. they'll have a single css
class. changing a style on a css class is now reflected in all elements of that
kind (with that class)
- css class names are helpful when inspecting the DOM while developing: they
typically describe the function of the element.
most css classes are defined near where they are used, often while making the
element using the class (the css rule is created on first use).
this changes moves colors used for styling to a single place in webmail/lib.ts.
each property can get two values: one for regular/light mode, one for dark mode.
that should prevent forgetting one of them and makes it easy to configure both.
this change sets colors for the dark mode. i think the popups look better than
in PR #163, but in other ways it may be worse. this is a start, we can tweak
the styling.
if we can reduce the number of needed colors some more, we could make them
configurable in the webmail settings in the future. so this is also a step
towards making the ui looks configurable as discussed in issue #107.
the members must currently all be addresses of local accounts.
a message sent to an alias is accepted if at least one of the members accepts
it. if no members accepts it (e.g. due to bad reputation of sender), the
message is rejected.
if a message is submitted to both an alias addresses and to recipients that are
members of the alias in an smtp transaction, the message will be delivered to
such members only once. the same applies if the address in the message
from-header is the address of a member: that member won't receive the message
(they sent it). this prevents duplicate messages.
aliases have three configuration options:
- PostPublic: whether anyone can send through the alias, or only members.
members-only lists can be useful inside organizations for internal
communication. public lists can be useful for support addresses.
- ListMembers: whether members can see the addresses of other members. this can
be seen in the account web interface. in the future, we could export this in
other ways, so clients can expand the list.
- AllowMsgFrom: whether messages can be sent through the alias with the alias
address used in the message from-header. the webmail knows it can use that
address, and will use it as from-address when replying to a message sent to
that address.
ideas for the future:
- allow external addresses as members. still with some restrictions, such as
requiring a valid dkim-signature so delivery has a chance to succeed. will
also need configuration of an admin that can receive any bounces.
- allow specifying specific members who can sent through the list (instead of
all members).

also relevant for #99 by naturalethic.
thanks to damir & marin from sartura for discussing requirements/features.
per mailbox, or for all mailboxes, in maildir/mbox format, in tar/tgz/zip
archive or without archive format for single mbox, single or recursive. the
webaccount already had an option to export all mailboxes, it now looks similar
to the webmail version.
if the message has a list-id header, we assume this is a (mailing) list
message, and we require a dkim/spf-verified domain (we prefer the shortest that
is a suffix of the list-id value). the rule we would add will mark such
messages as from a mailing list, changing filtering rules on incoming messages
(not enforcing dmarc policies). messages will be matched on list-id header and
will only match if they have the same dkim/spf-verified domain.
if the message doesn't have a list-id header, we'll ask to match based on
"message from" address.
we don't ask the user in several cases:
- if the destination/source mailbox is a special-use mailbox (e.g.
trash,archive,sent,junk; inbox isn't included)
- if the rule already exist (no point in adding it again).
- if the user said "no, not for this list-id/from-address" in the past.
- if the user said "no, not for messages moved to this mailbox" in the past.
we'll add the rule if the message was moved out of the inbox.
if the message was moved to the inbox, we check if there is a matching rule
that we can remove.
we now remember the "no" answers (for list-id, msg-from-addr and mailbox) in
the account database.
to implement the msgfrom rules, this adds support to rulesets for matching on
message "from" address. before, we could match on smtp from address (and other
fields). rulesets now also have a field for comments. webmail adds a note that
it created the rule, with the date.
manual editing of the rulesets is still in the webaccount page. this webmail
functionality is just a convenient way to add/remove common rules.
in top-left direction. keep textarea filling the height.
remember size in localstorage, only apply either width and/or height when
viewport width/height was the same as when the remembered width/height was set
(independently).
no visual indicator other than a cursor indicating resizability.
the regular send shortcut is control+Enter. the shift enables "archive thread".
there is no configuration option, you'll always get the button, but only for
reply/forward, not for new compose.
we may do "send and move thread to thrash", but let's wait until people want it.
