This patch performs some minor cleanups for things detected by "go vet":
- Remove one line of unreachable code.
- Don't leak contexts until their deadline expires, cancel them.
We can send and received with a <> "mail from", which is explicitly allowed.
Internally, we use "<>" to represent it. This requires special-casing in a
couple of places, but makes sure the handling is explicit, and we don't
accidentally confuse it with not having a source address.
This patch fixes some inconsistencies with this handling.
This patch makes the queue and couriers distinguish between permanent and
transient errors when delivering mail to individual recipients.
Pipe delivery errors are always permanent.
Procmail delivery errors are almost always permanent, except if the command
exited with code 75, which is an indication of transient.
SMTP delivery errors are almost always transient, except if the DNS resolution
for the domain failed.
This patch tidies up the Procmail courier:
- Move the configuration options to the courier instance, instead of using
global variables.
- Implement more useful string replacement options.
- Use exec.CommandContext for running the command with a timeout.
As a consequence of the first item, the queue now takes the couriers via its
constructor.
This patch adds a new test which makes chasquid send and receive email to/from
Exim.
To make it work we need to add two testing flags to the SMTP courier, which is
not ideal but doesn't muddle the code much.
The test is not very portable, and assumes an exim binary is available, but
does not have to be installed in the system. It includes a helper script to
fetch one from the Debian archives.
This patch does various minor style and simplification cleanups, fixing things
detected by tools such as go vet, gofmt -s, and golint.
There are no functional changes, this change is purely cosmetic, but will
enable us to run those tools more regularly now that their output is clean.
The routing courier is a nice idea in theory, but at least for now, we want
the queue to be aware of when a destination is local so we can implement
differentiated logic.
This may change in the future, though, but at the moment it's not clear that
the abstractions will be worth it.
So this patch removes it, and makes the queue do the routing. There is no
difference in how the two are handled yet, those will come in subsequent
patches.
This patch introduces an "envelope" package which, for now, provides simple
utilities for getting the user and domain of an address.
It also changes the couriers to use it (but other implementations remain, will
be moved over in subsequent patches).
This patch adds configuration options for the MDA binary and command line
arguments, and changes the (soon to be renamed) procmail courier to make use
of them.
Sanitize only lets some ascii characters go through, which is very unfriendly
to non-ascii usernames.
This patch changes it to be more inclusive, and filter out only selected
characters that may be problematic for the subprocesses, specially considering
UNIX shell environments. It's not meant to catch all possible problems, just
help prevent some common ones.
This patch introduces the couriers, which the queue uses to deliver mail.
We have a local courier (using procmail), a remote courier (uses SMTP), and a
router courier that decides which of the two to use based on a list of local
domains.
There are still a few things pending, but they all have their basic
functionality working and tested.
