Update /etc/iredmail-release with iRedMail version number
iRedMail stores the release version in /etc/iredmail-release
after
installation, it's recommended to update this file after you upgraded iRedMail,
so that you can know which version of iRedMail you're running. For example:
# File: /etc/iredmail-release
0.9.0
Upgrade Roundcube webmail to the latest stable release
Please follow Roundcube official tutorial to upgrade Roundcube webmail to the latest stable release immediately: How to upgrade Roundcube.
Upgrade iRedAPD (Postfix policy server) to the latest 1.4.4
Please follow below tutorial to upgrade iRedAPD to the latest stable release: Upgrade iRedAPD to the latest stable release
!!! note "Important Notes"
* in iRedMail-0.9.0 and future iRedMail releases, we will use
white/blacklists stored in Amavisd database in Amavisd (after-queue) and
iRedAPD (before-queue), so you must enable iRedAPD plugin `amavisd_wblist`.
* it's strongly recommended to enable plugin `reject_null_sender` (as first
plugin listed in iRedAPD parameter `plugins =`) to prevent spam.
iRedAPD-1.4.4 fixes several issues and brings some new features:
-
iRedAPD now works with Postfix parameter
smtpd_end_of_data_restrictions
(smtp protocol stateEND-OF-MESSAGE
). -
New plugins:
-
reject_null_sender
: prevent authenticated user to send spam as null sender (from=<>
in Postfix log file). -
amavisd_wblist
: it uses per-recipient white/blacklists stored in Amavisd SQL database to reject emails sent from blacklisted senders and bypass whitelisted senders.White/blacklist could be global (server-wide) setting, per-domain setting, or per-user setting. Priority: per-user > per-domain > global.
-
amavisd_message_size_limit
: limit size of single incoming mail.Message size limit could be global (server-wide) setting, per-domain setting, or per-user setting. Priority: per-user > per-domain > global.
-
-
Plugin
reject_sender_login_mismatch
now will allow user to send as their own alias addresses by default. You can still setALLOWED_LOGIN_MISMATCH_STRICTLY = False
in iRedAPD config file (/opt/iredapd/settings.py
) to allow user to send as any sender if you want.It's recommended to enable this plugin right after plugin
reject_null_sender
.
Suggested order of above 3 plugins are (if you enabled them):
plugins = ['reject_null_sender', 'reject_sender_login_mismatch', 'amavisd_wblist', ...]
!!! note "Important Notes"
* If you want to manage white/blacklists with the latest iRedAdmin-Pro, you
have to enable plugin `amavisd_wblist`.
* Plugin `amavisd_wblist` and `amavisd_message_size_limit` requires additional
database related settings in iRedAPD config file, please set correct values
for them. You can find SQL database settings in Amavisd config file,
in parameter `@lookup_sql_dsn =`, if `@lookup_sql_dsn` is disabled, you can
find them in `@storage_sql_dsn =`.
amavisd_db_server = '127.0.0.1'
amavisd_db_port = 3306
amavisd_db_name = 'amavisd'
amavisd_db_user = 'amavisd'
amavisd_db_password = 'password'
Upgrade iRedAdmin (open source edition) to the latest stable release
Please follow this tutorial to upgrade iRedAdmin open source edition to the latest stable release: Upgrade iRedAdmin to the latest stable release
Disable SSLv3 support
I believe you already heard about the POODLE
issue of SSL protocol v3.
POODLE stands for Padding Oracle On Downgraded Legacy Encryption. This
vulnerability allows a man-in-the-middle attacker to decrypt ciphertext using
a padding oracle side-channel attack. More details are available in the
upstream OpenSSL advisory: Vulnerability Summary for CVE-2014-3566.
The safest short-term response is to disable SSLv3 support.
Disable SSLv3 in Apache
Please add or update SSLProtocol
setting in Apache config file like below:
- on RHEL/CentOS, it's
/etc/httpd/conf.d/ssl.conf
. - on Debian/Ubuntu, it's
/etc/apache2/apache2.conf
. - on FreeBSD, it's
/usr/local/etc/apache2[X]/httpd.conf
. Please replaceapache2[X]
by the real Apache version number here.
SSLProtocol ALL -SSLv2 -SSLv3
Restarting Apache service is required.
Disable SSLv3 in Postfix
Please execute commands below to disable SSLv3 in Postfix:
postconf -e smtpd_tls_protocols='!SSLv2 !SSLv3'
postconf -e smtp_tls_protocols='!SSLv2 !SSLv3'
postconf -e lmtp_tls_protocols='!SSLv2 !SSLv3'
postconf -e smtpd_tls_mandatory_protocols='!SSLv2 !SSLv3'
postconf -e smtp_tls_mandatory_protocols='!SSLv2 !SSLv3'
postconf -e lmtp_tls_mandatory_protocols='!SSLv2 !SSLv3'
Restarting Postfix service is required.
Disable SSLv3 in Dovecot
Please add below setting in Dovecot main config file /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf
(on Linux/OpenBSD) or /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf
(on FreeBSD).
ssl_protocols = !SSLv2 !SSLv3
Restarting Dovecot service is required.
Fix improper Postfix setting in both main.cf and master.cf
NOTE: This step is wrong, please do not apply it. If you already applied it, please revert your changes.
if you send email to user user@domain.com
and mail list/alias list@domain.com
,
and user@
is member of list@
, then user@
will receive duplicate email.
# Part of file: /etc/postfix/master.cf
127.0.0.1:10025 inet n - - - - smtpd
...
-o receive_override_options=no_header_body_checks,no_unknown_recipient_checks,no_address_mappings
Without receive_override_options=no_address_mappings
in main.cf
:
-
Postfix will enable canonical address mapping, virtual alias map expansion, address masquerading, and automatic BCC (blind carbon-copy) recipients BEFORE injecting emails to content filter (Amavisd, in our case). For example, if you forward email to 3 email addresses, Postfix will expand the original recipient to 3 recipients, then Amavisd will get 3 emails for scanning. But with
receive_override_options=no_address_mappings
, Postfix won't expand original recipient to 3 addresses, and Amavisd gets only 1 email for scanning. It slightly improves mail server performance. -
If a blacklisted sender (stored in Amavisd SQL database, not in Policyd/Cluebringer) sends email to user who forwards email to other addresses, Amavisd will quarantine the one sent to original recipient, but bypass emails sent to forwarded addresses.
Please apply below steps to fix above issues:
- Add
receive_override_options
in Postfix with below shell command:
# postconf -e receive_override_options='no_address_mappings'
- Open file
/etc/postfix/master.cf
(On Linux/OpenBSD) or/usr/local/etc/postfix/master.cf
(on FreeBSD), find setting for transport127.0.0.1:10025
, removeno_address_mappings
for itsreceive_override_options
option:
# Part of file: /etc/postfix/master.cf
# ORIGINAL setting
# -o receive_override_options=no_header_body_checks,no_unknown_recipient_checks,no_address_mappings
# MODIFIED setting
-o receive_override_options=no_header_body_checks,no_unknown_recipient_checks
- Restart Postfix service.
!!! note
If you want to disable `content_filter=` in Postfix, please
comment out `receive_override_options=` in Postfix config file `main.cf` too,
otherwise canonical address mapping, virtual alias map expansion, address
masquerading, and automatic BCC (blind carbon-copy) recipients will not work.
Fix improper file permission of Amavisd config file
NOTE: This step is applicable to only Red Hat/CentOS 6.
Amavisd config file /etc/amavisd/amavisd.conf
must be owned by group amavis
,
otherwise after you upgraded to Red Hat/CentOS 7, Amavisd service cannot start.
# chgrp amavis /etc/amavisd/amavisd.conf
Fix incorrect setting to enable daily cron job to update SpamAssassin rules
NOTE: This step is applicable to only Debian and Ubuntu.
Please update file /etc/default/spamassassin
to set CRON=1
, so that
SpamAssassin daily cron job will update SpamAssassin rules automatically.
# Part of file: /etc/default/spamassassin
CRON=1
[OPTIONAL] Enable global sieve script in Dovecot to move spam to Junk folder by default
Note: this is an optional step.
Please follow our separate tutorial here.
OpenLDAP backend special
Fix improper LDAP query command in domain transport query file
NOTE: This step is wrong, please do not apply it. If you already applied it, please revert your changes.
# Part of file: /etc/postfix/ldap/transport_maps_domain.cf
# OLD setting
#query_filter = (&(objectClass=mailDomain)(accountStatus=active)(enabledService=mail)(|(domainName=%s)(domainAliasName=%s)))
# NEW setting
query_filter = (&(objectClass=mailDomain)(accountStatus=active)(enabledService=mail)(|(domainName=%s)(domainAliasName=%s))(!(domainBackupMX=yes)))
Restarting Postfix service is required.
Add new LDAP values for existing mail users
We will add new LDAP attribute/value pair for existing mail users:
enabledService=indexer-worker
. It's used by Dovecot.
- Download below python script to adding new values for existing mail users.
# cd /root/
# wget https://github.com/iredmail/iRedMail/raw/1.0/update/ldap/updateLDAPValues_087_to_090.py
- Open downloaded file
updateLDAPValues_087_to_090.py
, set LDAP server related settings in this file. For example:
# Part of file: updateLDAPValues_087_to_090.py
uri = 'ldap://127.0.0.1:389'
basedn = 'o=domains,dc=example,dc=com'
bind_dn = 'cn=vmailadmin,dc=example,dc=com'
bind_pw = 'passwd'
You can find required LDAP credential in iRedAdmin config file or iRedMail.tips
file under your iRedMail installation directory. Using either
cn=Manager,dc=xx,dc=xx
or cn=vmailadmin,dc=xx,dc=xx
as bind dn is ok.
- Execute this script, it will add required data:
# python updateLDAPValues_087_to_090.py
That's all.
Add index for SQL column in amavisd
database
We need indexes for some SQL columns in amavisd
database:
policy.policy_name
, msgs.spam_level
. Both are used by iRedAdmin-Pro.
Now connect to SQL server as MySQL root user, create new columns, add required INDEX:
$ mysql -uroot -p
mysql> USE amavisd;
mysql> ALTER TABLE policy MODIFY COLUMN policy_name VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL DEFAULT '';
mysql> CREATE UNIQUE INDEX policy_idx_policy_name ON policy (policy_name);
mysql> CREATE INDEX msgs_idx_spam_level ON msgs (spam_level);
MySQL backend special
Fix improper SQL query command in domain transport query file
NOTE: This step is wrong, please do not apply it. If you already applied it, please revert your changes.
# Part of file: /etc/postfix/mysql/transport_maps_domain.cf
# OLD setting
#query = SELECT transport FROM domain WHERE domain='%s' AND active=1
# NEW setting
query = SELECT transport FROM domain WHERE domain='%s' AND active=1 AND backupmx=0
Restarting Postfix service is required.
Add and remove SQL columns in vmail
and amavisd
databases
-
We need new SQL columns in
vmail
database:mailbox.enableindexer-worker
, it's used by Dovecot. -
We need new indexes for some 2 columns in
amavisd
database:policy.policy_name
,msgs.spam_level
. Both are used by iRedAdmin-Pro.
Now connect to SQL server as MySQL root user, create new columns, add required indexes:
$ mysql -uroot -p
mysql> USE vmail;
mysql> ALTER TABLE mailbox ADD COLUMN `enableindexer-worker` TINYINT(1) NOT NULL DEFAULT 1;
mysql> ALTER TABLE mailbox ADD INDEX (`enableindexer-worker`);
mysql> USE amavisd;
mysql> ALTER TABLE policy MODIFY COLUMN policy_name VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL DEFAULT '';
mysql> CREATE UNIQUE INDEX policy_idx_policy_name ON policy (policy_name);
mysql> CREATE INDEX msgs_idx_spam_level ON msgs (spam_level);
PostgreSQL backend special
