# Outbound email for Thermograph — run once on the VPS, as root.
|
|
#
|
|
# Installs Postfix as a SEND-ONLY NULL CLIENT: it listens on 127.0.0.1:25 only,
|
|
# accepts mail from this machine, and never receives mail from the internet.
|
|
#
|
|
# Why a local MTA instead of talking to a mail provider's API from Python:
|
|
#
|
|
# * The app's only mail config becomes "SMTP on localhost". Whether delivery
|
|
# then goes direct to the recipient's MX or through a relay is a Postfix
|
|
# setting — switchable without touching, redeploying, or retesting the app.
|
|
# * Postfix queues and retries. A request handler hands the message over in
|
|
# microseconds and returns; a slow or briefly-down upstream can't stall a
|
|
# web request or lose a signup.
|
|
# * No new Python dependency: stdlib smtplib talks to it (see backend/mailer.py).
|
|
#
|
|
# DELIVERABILITY — read before pointing this at real subscribers.
|
|
#
|
|
# Mail sent straight from a VPS IP is very often junked, regardless of Postfix
|
|
# config, because the IP has no sending reputation. Two options:
|
|
#
|
|
# A. RELAY through a transactional provider (recommended for real mail).
|
|
# Set RELAYHOST + RELAY_USER + RELAY_PASSWORD below. The provider handles
|
|
# SPF/DKIM alignment and reputation; you keep the loopback-SMTP seam.
|
|
#
|
|
# B. DIRECT to MX (no third party). Then you must also set up, in DNS:
|
|
# - SPF: TXT @ "v=spf1 a mx ip4:<VPS_IP> -all"
|
|
# - DKIM: install opendkim, publish the public key as a TXT record
|
|
# - DMARC: TXT _dmarc "v=DMARC1; p=none; rua=mailto:you@domain"
|
|
# - PTR / reverse DNS on the VPS IP -> mail.thermograph.org
|
|
# The PTR record is the one people forget, and its absence alone is enough
|
|
# for Gmail and Outlook to junk everything you send.
|
|
#
|
|
# Usage:
|
|
# sudo MAIL_DOMAIN=thermograph.org bash deploy/provision-mail.sh
|
|
# sudo MAIL_DOMAIN=thermograph.org RELAYHOST='[smtp.provider.com]:587' \
|
|
# RELAY_USER=apikey RELAY_PASSWORD=secret bash deploy/provision-mail.sh
|
|
#
|
|
# MAIL_ENV picks which environment's deploy mode (env-topology.sh) sizes the
|
|
# Docker mail gateway below -- see the "WHICH gateway" comment. Defaults to
|
|
# prod; only matters if this box ever runs an environment in compose mode
|
|
# (it doesn't today -- prod and beta are both Swarm on this box; compose-mode
|
|
# dev lives on the other box entirely and doesn't run Postfix).

# Never listen on a public interface. This box sends only. The app runs in a

|
# Docker container, so it can't reach the host's loopback — it hands mail to
|
|
# Postfix over the compose bridge's gateway. So Postfix also listens on that
|
|
# gateway and accepts mail from the bridge subnet (both pinned in
|
|
# docker-compose.yml). Set DOCKER_MAIL_GATEWAY="" for a pure loopback-only null
|
|
# client (app running natively on the host, not in a container).
|
|
#
|
|
# WHICH gateway to listen on comes from MAIL_ENV's deploy mode (env-topology.sh,
|
|
# TG_DEPLOY_MODE) -- not a hardcoded beta/prod split. Beta moved onto this SAME
|
|
# box as prod and is Swarm too now, so "compose" no longer means "beta"; it
|
|
# means dev, which lives on the other box entirely and never runs this script.
|
|
# Compose mode uses the pinned compose bridge (172.19.0.1/172.19.0.0/16, the
|
|
# defaults); stack mode uses the docker_gwbridge gateway instead -- overlay
|
|
# tasks have no compose-bridge gateway -- so a stack-mode MAIL_ENV (prod or
|
|
# beta; same box, same gateway) gets DOCKER_MAIL_GATEWAY=172.18.0.1
|
|
# DOCKER_MAIL_SUBNET=172.18.0.0/16 (plus the MESH_MAIL_* listener below). Do
|
|
# NOT list an address that doesn't exist on the host: Postfix's master fails
|
|
# to bind and takes ALL listeners down -- exactly what happened when the
|
|
# compose bridge (172.19.0.1) vanished at the stack cutover while still listed
|
|
# in inet_interfaces. Also note: postfix on this distro is an umbrella unit;
|
|
# restart `postfix@-`, not `postfix`, for inet_interfaces changes to take
|
|
# effect.
|
|
#
|
|
# THE SAME TRAP FIRES AT BOOT, NOT JUST ON RENUMBERING (prod outage 2026-07-24).
|
|
# A Docker bridge address does not exist until dockerd creates it, and the stock
|
|
# postfix@.service is only ordered `After=network-online.target` -- which says
|
|
# nothing about dockerd or wg-quick. At the 08:09 reboot Postfix started at
|
|
# 08:09:49 and fataled at 08:09:52 on "no local interface found for 172.18.0.1";
|
|
# dockerd did not even begin starting until 08:09:53. wg0 (10.10.0.1) won the
|
|
# same race by one second. Because postfix@.service ships no Restart=, that
|
|
# single lost race killed ALL mail for 13h -- loopback and mesh included.
|
|
# install_postfix_ordering_dropin below is what makes this survive a reboot:
|
|
# it orders postfix@ after docker.service and wg-quick@wg0.service and retries
|
|
# on failure. If you add an address here that some other daemon creates, add
|
|
# that daemon to the drop-in too.

==> next steps
|
|
|
|
1. Point the app at it, in /etc/thermograph.env:
|
|
|
|
THERMOGRAPH_MAIL_BACKEND=smtp
|
|
THERMOGRAPH_SMTP_HOST=127.0.0.1
|
|
THERMOGRAPH_SMTP_PORT=25
|
|
THERMOGRAPH_MAIL_FROM=Thermograph <no-reply@thermograph.org>
|
|
|
|
then: sudo systemctl restart thermograph
|
|
|
|
2. Send yourself a test message:
|
|
|
|
echo "test body" | mail -s "thermograph test" you@example.com
|
|
# or, exercising the app's own path:
|
|
# python -c "import sys; sys.path.insert(0,'/opt/thermograph/backend'); \
|
|
# import mailer; print(mailer.send('you@example.com','t','body'))"
|
|
|
|
3. Watch it leave: journalctl -u postfix -f (queue: mailq)
|
|
|
|
4. Check placement with https://www.mail-tester.com — it scores SPF, DKIM,
|
|
DMARC and rDNS in one shot and tells you exactly what's missing.
