in smtpserver, we store dmarc evaluations (under the right conditions).
in dmarcdb, we periodically (hourly) send dmarc reports if there are
evaluations. for failed deliveries, we deliver the dsn quietly to a submailbox
of the postmaster mailbox.
this is on by default, but can be disabled in mox.conf.
we set the flag both for move in imap and in webmail.
this also ensures the "MailboxDestinedID", used for per-mailbox reputation
analysis, is set in more reject-situations. before this change, some rejects
(such as based on DMARC reject) wouldn't result in reputation being used after
having been moved the message out of the rejects mailbox.
in the future, we need more tests for scenario's like this...
for issue #63 reported by x8x

this is based on @bobobo1618's PR #50. bobobo1618 had the right idea, i tried
including an "is forwarded email" configuration option but that indeed became
too tightly coupled. the "is forwarded" option is still planned, but it is
separate from the "accept rejects to mailbox" config option, because one could
still want to push back on forwarded spam messages.
we do an actual accept, delivering to a configured mailbox, instead of storing
to the rejects mailbox where messages can automatically be removed from. one
of the goals of mox is not pretend to accept email while actually junking it.
users can still configure delivery to a junk folder (as was already possible),
but aren't deleted automatically. there is still an X-Mox-Reason header in the
message, and a log line about accepting the reject, but otherwise it is
registered and treated as an (smtp) accept.
the ruleset mailbox is still required to keep that explicit. users can specify
Inbox again.
hope this is good enough for PR #50, otherwise we'll change it.
the idea of the rejects mailbox is to show messages that were rejected. you can
look there, and if you see a message that should have been delivered, you can
move it to your inbox or archive. next time a deliver attempt by that user is
attempted, they should be accepted, because you corrected the reject. but that
wasn't happening, because the reputation-calculation is per-delivery mailbox
(e.g. Inbox) and we look at MailboxOrigID when calculating the reputation. and
that was set to the Rejects mailbox id, so the message wasn't considered. the
same applies to moving messages from Rejects to Junk (to train your filter).
we now keep track of a MailboxDestinedID, that is set to the mailbox that we
would have delivered to if we would not have rejected the message. then, when a
message is moved out of the Rejects mailbox, we change MailboxOrigID to
MailboxDestinedID. this essentially makes the message look like it was
delivered normally.
