## SSL (and: How to use Let's Encrypt)

mailcow dockerized comes with a snakeoil CA "mailcow" and a server certificate in `data/assets/ssl`. Please use your own trusted certificates.

mailcow uses 3 domain names that should be covered by your new certificate:

- ${MAILCOW_HOSTNAME}
- autodiscover.**example.org**
- autoconfig.**example.org**

### Obtain multi-SAN certificate by Let's Encrypt

This is just an example of how to obtain certificates with certbot. There are several methods!

1\. Get the certbot client:
```
wget https://dl.eff.org/certbot-auto -O /usr/local/sbin/certbot && chmod +x /usr/local/sbin/certbot
```

2\. Make sure you set `HTTP_BIND=0.0.0.0` in `mailcow.conf` or setup a reverse proxy to enable connections to port 80. If you changed HTTP_BIND, then restart Nginx:
```
docker-compose restart nginx-mailcow
```

3\. Request the certificate with the webroot method:
```
cd /path/to/git/clone/mailcow-dockerized
source mailcow.conf
certbot certonly \
    --webroot \
    -w ${PWD}/data/web \
    -d ${MAILCOW_HOSTNAME} \
    -d autodiscover.example.org \
    -d autoconfig.example.org \
    --email you@example.org \
    --agree-tos
```
    
4\. Create hard links to the full path of the new certificates. Assuming you are still in the mailcow root folder:
```
mv data/assets/ssl/cert.{pem,pem.backup}
mv data/assets/ssl/key.{pem,pem.backup}
ln $(readlink -f /etc/letsencrypt/live/${MAILCOW_HOSTNAME}/fullchain.pem) data/assets/ssl/cert.pem
ln $(readlink -f /etc/letsencrypt/live/${MAILCOW_HOSTNAME}/privkey.pem) data/assets/ssl/key.pem
```

5\. Restart affected containers:
```
docker-compose restart postfix-mailcow dovecot-mailcow nginx-mailcow
```

When renewing certificates, run the last two steps (link + restart) as post-hook in a script.

## Rspamd Web UI
At first you may want to setup Rspamds web interface which provides some useful features and information.

1\. Generate a Rspamd controller password hash:
```
docker-compose exec rspamd-mailcow rspamadm pw
```

2\. Replace the default hash in `data/conf/rspamd/override.d/worker-controller.inc` by your newly generated:
```
enable_password = "myhash";
```

3\. Restart rspamd:
```
docker-compose restart rspamd-mailcow
```

Open https://${MAILCOW_HOSTNAME}/rspamd in a browser and login!

## Optional: Reverse proxy

You don't need to change the Nginx site that comes with mailcow: dockerized.
mailcow: dockerized trusts the default gateway IP 172.22.1.1 as proxy. This is very important to control access to Rspamd's web UI.

1\. Make sure you change HTTP_BIND and HTTPS_BIND in `mailcow.conf` to a local address and set the ports accordingly, for example:
```
HTTP_BIND=127.0.0.1
HTTP_PORT=8080
HTTPS_PORT=127.0.0.1
HTTPS_PORT=8443
```

Recreate affected containers by running `docker-compose up -d`.

2\. Configure your local webserver as reverse proxy:

### Apache 2.4
```
<VirtualHost *:443>
    ServerName mail.example.org
    ServerAlias autodiscover.example.org
    ServerAlias autoconfig.example.org

    [...]
    # You should proxy to a plain HTTP session to offload SSL processing
    ProxyPass / http://127.0.0.1:8080/
    ProxyPassReverse / http://127.0.0.1:8080/
    ProxyPreserveHost On
    your-ssl-configuration-here
    [...]

    # If you plan to proxy to a HTTPS host:
    #SSLProxyEngine On
    
    # If you plan to proxy to an untrusted HTTPS host:
    #SSLProxyVerify none
    #SSLProxyCheckPeerCN off
    #SSLProxyCheckPeerName off
    #SSLProxyCheckPeerExpire off
</VirtualHost>
```

### Nginx
```
server {
    listen 443;
    server_name mail.example.org autodiscover.example.org autoconfig.example.org;

    [...]
    your-ssl-configuration-here
    location / {
        proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8080;
        proxy_set_header Host $host;
        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
    }
    [...]
}
```

## Sender and receiver model

When a mailbox is created, a user is allowed to send mail from and receive mail for his own mailbox address.

    Mailbox me@example.org is created. example.org is a primary domain. 
    Note: a mailbox cannot be created in an alias domain.

    me@example.org is only known as me@example.org.
    me@example.org is allowed to send as me@example.org.

We can add an alias domain for example.org:

    Alias domain alias.com is added and assigned to primary domain example.org.
    me@example.org is now known as me@example.org and me@alias.com.
    me@example.org is now allowed to send as me@example.org and me@alias.com.

We can add aliases for a mailbox to receive mail for and to send from this new address.

It is important to know, that you are not able to receive mail for `my-alias@my-alias-domain.tld`. You would need to create this particular alias.

    me@example.org is assigned the alias alias@example.org
    me@example.org is now known as alias@example.org, me@alias.com, alias@example.org

    me@example.org is NOT known as alias@alias.com.

Administrators and domain administrators can edit mailboxes to allow specific users to send as other mailbox users ("delegate" them).

You can choose between mailbox users or completely disable the sender check for domains.

### SOGo "mail from" addresses

Mailbox users can, obviously, select their own mailbox address, as well as all alias addresses and aliases that exist through alias domains.

If you want to select another _existing_ mailbox user as your "mail from" address, this user has to delegate you access through SOGo (see SOGo documentation). Moreover a mailcow (domain) administrator
needs to grant you access as described above.
