Example transport

Mox uses two config files:

mox.conf, also called the static configuration file.
domains.conf, also called the dynamic configuration file.

The static configuration file is never reloaded during the lifetime of a running mox instance. After changes to mox.conf, mox must be restarted for the changes to take effect.

The dynamic configuration file is reloaded automatically when it changes. If the file contains an error after the change, the reload is aborted and the previous version remains active.

Below are "empty" config files, generated from the config file definitions in the source code, along with comments explaining the fields. Fields named "x" are placeholders for user-chosen map keys.

sconf #

The config files are in "sconf" format. Properties of sconf files:

Indentation with tabs only.
"#" as first non-whitespace character makes the line a comment. Lines with a value cannot also have a comment.
Values don't have syntax indicating their type. For example, strings are not quoted/escaped and can never span multiple lines.
Fields that are optional can be left out completely. But the value of an optional field may itself have required fields.

See https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/mjl-/sconf for details.

mox.conf #

# NOTE: This config file is in 'sconf' format. Indent with tabs. Comments must be

# on their own line, they don't end a line. Do not escape or quote strings.

# Details: https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/mjl-/sconf.

# Directory where all data is stored, e.g. queue, accounts and messages, ACME TLS

# certs/keys. If this is a relative path, it is relative to the directory of

# mox.conf.

DataDir: #

# Default log level, one of: error, info, debug, trace, traceauth, tracedata.

# Trace logs SMTP and IMAP protocol transcripts, with traceauth also messages with

# passwords, and tracedata on top of that also the full data exchanges (full

# messages), which can be a large amount of data.

LogLevel: #

# Overrides of log level per package (e.g. queue, smtpclient, smtpserver,

# imapserver, spf, dkim, dmarc, dmarcdb, autotls, junk, mtasts, tlsrpt).

# (optional)

PackageLogLevels: #

x: #

# User to switch to after binding to all sockets as root. Default: mox. If the

# value is not a known user, it is parsed as integer and used as uid and gid.

# (optional)

User: #

# If true, do not automatically fix file permissions when starting up. By default,

# mox will ensure reasonable owner/permissions on the working, data and config

# directories (and files), and mox binary (if present). (optional)

NoFixPermissions: false #

# Full hostname of system, e.g. mail.<domain>

Hostname: #

# If enabled, a single DNS TXT lookup of _updates.xmox.nl is done every 24h to

# check for a new release. Each time a new release is found, a changelog is

# fetched from https://updates.xmox.nl/changelog and delivered to the postmaster

# mailbox. (optional)

CheckUpdates: false #

# In pedantic mode protocol violations (that happen in the wild) for SMTP/IMAP/etc

# result in errors instead of accepting such behaviour. (optional)

Pedantic: false #

# Global TLS configuration, e.g. for additional Certificate Authorities. Used for

# outgoing SMTP connections, HTTPS requests. (optional)

TLS: #

# (optional)

CA: #

# (optional)

AdditionalToSystem: false #

# (optional)

CertFiles: #

- #

# Automatic TLS configuration with ACME, e.g. through Let's Encrypt. The key is a

# name referenced in TLS configs, e.g. letsencrypt. (optional)

ACME: #

x: #

# For letsencrypt, use https://acme-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/directory.

DirectoryURL: #

# How long before expiration to renew the certificate. Default is 30 days.

# (optional)

RenewBefore: 0s #

# Email address to register at ACME provider. The provider can email you when

# certificates are about to expire. If you configure an address for which email is

# delivered by this server, keep in mind that TLS misconfigurations could result

# in such notification emails not arriving.

ContactEmail: #

# TLS port for ACME validation, 443 by default. You should only override this if

# you cannot listen on port 443 directly. ACME will make requests to port 443, so

# you'll have to add an external mechanism to get the tls connection here, e.g. by

# configuring firewall-level port forwarding. Validation over the https port uses

# tls-alpn-01 with application-layer protocol negotiation, which essentially means

# the original tls connection must make it here unmodified, an https reverse proxy

# will not work. (optional)

Port: 0 #

# If set, used for suggested CAA DNS records, for restricting TLS certificate

# issuance to a Certificate Authority. If empty and DirectyURL is for Let's

# Encrypt, this value is set automatically to letsencrypt.org. (optional)

IssuerDomainName: #

# ACME providers can require that a request for a new ACME account reference an

# existing non-ACME account known to the provider. External account binding

# references that account by a key id, and authorizes new ACME account requests by

# signing it with a key known both by the ACME client and ACME provider.

# (optional)

ExternalAccountBinding: #

# Key identifier, from ACME provider.

KeyID: #

# File containing the base64url-encoded key used to sign account requests with

# external account binding. The ACME provider will verify the account request is

# correctly signed by the key. File is evaluated relative to the directory of

# mox.conf.

KeyFile: #

# File containing hash of admin password, for authentication in the web admin

# pages (if enabled). (optional)

AdminPasswordFile: #

# Listeners are groups of IP addresses and services enabled on those IP addresses,

# such as SMTP/IMAP or internal endpoints for administration or Prometheus

# metrics. All listeners with SMTP/IMAP services enabled will serve all configured

# domains. If the listener is named 'public', it will get a few helpful additional

# configuration checks, for acme automatic tls certificates and monitoring of ips

# in dnsbls if those are configured.

Listeners: #

x: #

# Use 0.0.0.0 to listen on all IPv4 and/or :: to listen on all IPv6 addresses, but

# it is better to explicitly specify the IPs you want to use for email, as mox

# will make sure outgoing connections will only be made from one of those IPs. If

# both outgoing IPv4 and IPv6 connectivity is possible, and only one family has

# explicitly configured addresses, both address families are still used for

# outgoing connections. Use the "direct" transport to limit address families for

# outgoing connections.

IPs: #

- #

# If set, the mail server is configured behind a NAT and field IPs are internal

# instead of the public IPs, while NATIPs lists the public IPs. Used during

# IP-related DNS self-checks, such as for iprev, mx, spf, autoconfig,

# autodiscover, and for autotls. (optional)

NATIPs: #

- #

# Deprecated, use NATIPs instead. If set, IPs are not the public IPs, but are

# NATed. Skips IP-related DNS self-checks. (optional)

IPsNATed: false #

# If empty, the config global Hostname is used. The internal services webadmin,

# webaccount, webmail and webapi only match requests to IPs, this hostname,

# "localhost". All except webadmin also match for any client settings domain.

# (optional)

Hostname: #

# For SMTP/IMAP STARTTLS, direct TLS and HTTPS connections. (optional)

TLS: #

# Name of provider from top-level configuration to use for ACME, e.g. letsencrypt.

# (optional)

ACME: #

# Keys and certificates to use for this listener. The files are opened by the

# privileged root process and passed to the unprivileged mox process, so no

# special permissions are required on the files. If the private key will not be

# replaced when refreshing certificates, also consider adding the private key to

# HostPrivateKeyFiles and configuring DANE TLSA DNS records. (optional)

KeyCerts: #

- #

# Certificate including intermediate CA certificates, in PEM format.

CertFile: #

# Private key for certificate, in PEM format. PKCS8 is recommended, but PKCS1 and

# EC private keys are recognized as well.

KeyFile: #

# Minimum TLS version. Default: TLSv1.2. (optional)

MinVersion: #

# Private keys used for ACME certificates. Specified explicitly so DANE TLSA DNS

# records can be generated, even before the certificates are requested. DANE is a

# mechanism to authenticate remote TLS certificates based on a public key or

# certificate specified in DNS, protected with DNSSEC. DANE is opportunistic and

# attempted when delivering SMTP with STARTTLS. The private key files must be in

# PEM format. PKCS8 is recommended, but PKCS1 and EC private keys are recognized

# as well. Only RSA 2048 bit and ECDSA P-256 keys are currently used. The first of

# each is used when requesting new certificates through ACME. (optional)

# support TLS and may not be able to deliver messages. Incoming messages for TLS

# reporting addresses ignore this setting and do not require TLS. (optional)

RequireSTARTTLS: false #

# Do not announce the REQUIRETLS SMTP extension. Messages delivered using the

# REQUIRETLS extension should only be distributed onwards to servers also

# implementing the REQUIRETLS extension. In some situations, such as hosting

# mailing lists, this may not be feasible due to lack of support for the extension

# by mailing list subscribers. (optional)

NoRequireTLS: false #

# Addresses of DNS block lists for incoming messages. Block lists are only

# consulted for connections/messages without enough reputation to make an

# accept/reject decision. This prevents sending IPs of all communications to the

# block list provider. If any of the listed DNSBLs contains a requested IP

# address, the message is rejected as spam. The DNSBLs are checked for healthiness

# before use, at most once per 4 hours. IPs we can send from are periodically

# checked for being in the configured DNSBLs. See MonitorDNSBLs in domains.conf to

# only monitor IPs we send from, without using those DNSBLs for incoming messages.

# With DMARC, a domain publishes, in DNS, a policy on how other mail servers

# should handle incoming messages with the From-header matching this domain and/or

# subdomain (depending on the configured alignment). Receiving mail servers use

# this to build up a reputation of this domain, which can help with mail delivery.

# A domain can also publish an email address to which reports about DMARC

# verification results can be sent by verifying mail servers, useful for

# monitoring. Incoming DMARC reports are automatically parsed, validated, added to

# metrics and stored in the reporting database for later display in the admin web

# pages. (optional)

DMARC: #

# field with a domain that is fully hosted on this server, so the localpart and

# Mailbox to deliver to, e.g. DMARC.

Mailbox: #

# MTA-STS is a mechanism that allows publishing a policy with requirements for

# WebPKI-verified SMTP STARTTLS connections for email delivered to a domain.

# Existence of a policy is announced in a DNS TXT record (often

# unprotected/unverified, MTA-STS's weak spot). If a policy exists, it is fetched

# with a WebPKI-verified HTTPS request. The policy can indicate that

# WebPKI-verified SMTP STARTTLS is required, and which MX hosts (optionally with a

# wildcard pattern) are allowd. MX hosts to deliver to are still taken from DNS

# (again, not necessarily protected/verified), but messages will only be delivered

# to domains matching the MX hosts from the published policy. Mail servers look up

# the MTA-STS policy when first delivering to a domain, then keep a cached copy,

# periodically checking the DNS record if a new policy is available, and fetching

# and caching it if so. To update a policy, first serve a new policy with an

# updated policy ID, then update the DNS record (not the other way around). To

# remove an enforced policy, publish an updated policy with mode "none" for a long

# enough period so all cached policies have been refreshed (taking DNS TTL and

# policy max age into account), then remove the policy from DNS, wait for TTL to

# expire, and stop serving the policy. (optional)

MTASTS: #

# Policies are versioned. The version must be specified in the DNS record. If you

# change a policy, first change it here to update the served policy, then update

# the DNS record with the updated policy ID.

PolicyID: #

# If set to "enforce", a remote SMTP server will not deliver email to us if it

# cannot make a WebPKI-verified SMTP STARTTLS connection. In mode "testing",

# deliveries can be done without verified TLS, but errors will be reported through

# TLS reporting. In mode "none", verified TLS is not required, used for phasing

# out an MTA-STS policy.
