This is V3 of my opensmtp records configuration. Hopefully soon, I will have
this WIP service is guixrus, so more people can easily play with it.

https://git.sr.ht/~whereiseveryone/guixrus

BUT the new milestone is this, I am now actually able to use opensmtpd on my
gnucode.me account! So that is pretty awesome!

Here is a link to my server config:

https://notabug.org/jbranso/linode-guix-system-configuration/src/master/linode-locke-lamora-current-config.scm

The best place to find documentation for this service is here:

https://notabug.org/jbranso/linode-guix-system-configuration/src/master/opensmtpd-records-documentation.txt


Openmstpd-configuration may only be configured by a config-file that
uses the smtpd.conf syntax.  This patch, enables one to configure
opensmtpd by using record types.

+@item Data Type: opensmtpd-interface
+Data type representing the configuration of an
+@code{<opensmtpd-interface>}. It listens on the fieldname
+@code{interface} for incoming connections, using the same syntax as
+@code{ifconfig}. The interface parameter may also be an string interface
+group, an string IP address, or a string domain name. Listening can
+optionally be restricted to a specific address via the fieldname
+@code{family}, which can be either @code{"inet4"} or @code{"inet6"}.
+
+@itemize
+@item @code{interface} (default: @code{"lo"})
+
+The string interface to listen for incoming connections.  This string
+may be an interface group, an IP address, or a domain name. These
+interfaces can usually be found by the command @code{ip link}.
+
+@item @code{family} (default: @code{#f})
+
+Only listen on a specific address family.  Valid strings are
+@code{"inet4"} or @code{"inet6"}, which will only listen on IPv4 or IPv6
+respectfully.  If @code{(family #f)}, then opensmtpd will listen on both
+IPv4 and IPv6.
+
+@item @code{auth} (default: @code{#f})
+Support SMTPAUTH: clients may only start SMTP transactions after
+successful authentication. If @code{auth} is @code{#t}, then users are
+authenticated against their own normal login credentials. Alternatively
+@code{auth} may be a @code{mapping table} that maps usernames to
+encrypted passwords.  The password can be encrypted via the
+@code{smtpctl} @code{encrypt} subcommand.
+
+@item @code{auth-optional} (default: @code{#f})
+Support SMTPAUTH optionally: clients need not authenticate, but may do
+so.  This allows the @code{<opensmtpd-interface>} to both accept
+incoming mail from untrusted senders and permit outgoing mail from
+authenticated users. It can be used in situations where it is not
+possible to listen on a separate port (usually the submission port, 587)
+for users to authenticate.  This option also accepts a @code{mapping
+table} that maps usernames to encrypted passwords.
+
+@item @code{filters} (default: @code{#f})
+A list of one or many @code{<opensmtpd-filter>} or
+@code{<opensmtpd-filter-phase>} records. The filters are applied
+sequentially. These records listen and filter on connections handled by this
+listener.
+
+@item @code{hostname} (default: @code{#f})
+Change the default server name in the greeting banner instead of the
+default one.
+
+@item @code{hostnames} (default: @code{#f})
+Override the server name for specific addresses. Use a @code{mapping
+table} that maps string IP addresses to string hostnames. If the address
+on which the connection arrives appears in the mapping, the associated
+hostname is used.
+
+@item @code{mask-src} (default: @code{#f})
+If @code{#t}, then omit the from part when prepending “Received” headers.
+
+@item @code{disable-dsn} (default: @code{#f})
+When @code{#t}, then disable the DSN (Delivery Status Notification) extension.
+
+@item @code{pki} (default: @code{#f})
+For secure connections, use an @code{<opensmtpd-pki>} record to prove a
+mail server's identity.
+
+@item @code{port} (default: @code{25})
+Listen on the integer port instead of the default port of 25.
+
+@item @code{proxy-v2} (default: @code{#f})
+If @code{#t}, then support the PROXYv2 protocol, rewriting appropriately source
+address received from proxy.
+
+@item @code{received-auth} (default: @code{#f})
+If @code{#t}, then in “Received” headers, report whether the session was
+authenticated and by which local user.
+
+@item @code{senders} (default: @code{#f})
+Look up the authenticated user in the supplied @code{mapping table} to
+find the email addresses that user is allowed to submit mail as.
+
+@item @code{masquerade} (default: @code{#f})
+@code{masquerade}, is used in conjunction with @code{senders}.  If
+@code{#t}, then the From header is rewritten to match the sender
+provided in the SMTP session.  If @code{senders} is @code{#false}, then
+@code{masquerade} cannot be @code{#t}.

+that traffic is routed as efficiently as possible.
+@end itemize
+
+@item Data Type: opensmtpd-filter
+This data type represents the configuration of an
+@code{<opensmtpd-filter>}. This is the filter record one should use

+
+In a regular workflow, @code{smtpd(8)} may accept or reject a message
+based only on the content of envelopes. Its decisions are about the

+
+Filtering extends the decision making process by allowing
+@code{smtpd(8)} to stop at each phase of an SMTP session, check that
+options are met, then decide if a session is allowed to move forward.
+
+With filtering via an @code{<opensmtpd-filter-phase>} record, a
+session may be interrupted at any phase before an envelope is complete. A
+message may also be rejected after being submitted, regardless of whether the
+envelope was accepted or not.
+
+@itemize
+@item @code{name} (default: @code{#f})
+
+The string name of the filter phase.
+
+@item @code{phase-name} (default: @code{#f})
+The string name of the phase. Valid values are:

+@code{<opensmtpd-option>}'s fieldname @code{option} values of:
+@code{"fcrdns"}, @code{"rdns"}, and @code{"src"} data are available in
+all phases, but other data must have been already submitted before they
+are available. Options with a @code{<table>} next to them require the
+@code{<opensmtpd-option>}'s fieldname @code{data} to be an
+@code{<opensmtpd-table>}. There are the available options:
+
+@multitable {aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa} {aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa}
+@item @code{"fcrdns"}
+@tab forward-confirmed reverse DNS is valid
+@item @code{"rdns"}

+
+Any conditions that require a table may indicate that tables include regexs
+setting @code{(opensmtpd-option (regex #t))}.
+
+@item @code{decision}
+A string decision to be taken. Some decisions require an @code{message}
+or @code{value}.  The value and message may be put in the

+
+@multitable {aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa} {aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa}
+@item @code{"bypass"}

+@item @code{"reject"} message
+@tab the command is rejected with message
+@item @code{"rewrite"} value
+@tab the command parameter is rewritten with value
+@end multitable
+

+@item Format Specifiers
+Some configuration records support expansion of their parameters at
+runtime. Such records (for example
+@code{<opensmtpd-maildir>}, @code{<opensmtpd-mda>}) may use
+format specifiers which are expanded before delivery or relaying. The
+following formats are currently supported:
+
+@multitable {aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa} {aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa}
+@item @samp{%@{sender@}}
+@tab sender email address, may be empty string
+@item @samp{%@{sender.user@}}
+@tab user part of the sender email address, may be empty
+@item @samp{%@{sender.domain@}}
+@tab domain part of the sender email address, may be empty
+@item @samp{%@{rcpt@}}
+@tab recipient email address
+@item @samp{%@{rcpt.user@}}
+@tab user part of the recipient email address
+@item @samp{%@{rcpt.domain@}}
+@tab domain part of the recipient email address
+@item @samp{%@{dest@}}
+@tab recipient email address after expansion
+@item @samp{%@{dest.user@}}
+@tab user part after expansion
+@item @samp{%@{dest.domain@}}
+@tab domain part after expansion
+@item @samp{%@{user.username@}}
+@tab local user
+@item @samp{%@{user.directory@}}
+@tab home directory of the local user
+@item @samp{%@{mbox.from@}}
+@tab name used in mbox From separator lines
+@item @samp{%@{mda@}}
+@tab mda command, only available for mda wrappers
+@end multitable
+
+Expansion formats also support partial expansion using the optional bracket notations
+with substring offset.  For example, with recipient domain @samp{“example.org”}:
+
+@multitable {aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa} {aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa}
+@item @samp{%@{rcpt.domain[0]@}}
+@tab expands to “e”
+@item @samp{%@{rcpt.domain[1]@}}
+@tab expands to “x”
+@item @samp{%@{rcpt.domain[8:]@}}
+@tab expands to “org”
+@item @samp{%@{rcpt.domain[-3:]@}}
+@tab expands to “org”
+@item @samp{%@{rcpt.domain[0:6]@}}
+@tab expands to “example”
+@item @samp{%@{rcpt.domain[0:-4]@}}
+@tab expands to “example”
+@end multitable
+
+In addition, modifiers may be applied to the token.  For example, with recipient
+@samp{“User+Tag@@Example.org”}:
+
+@multitable {aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa} {aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa}
+@item @samp{%@{rcpt:lowercase@}}
+@tab expands to “user+tag@@example.org”
+@item @samp{%@{rcpt:uppercase@}}
+@tab expands to “USER+TAG@@EXAMPLE.ORG”
+@item @samp{%@{rcpt:strip@}}
+@tab expands to “User@@Example.org”
+@item @samp{%@{rcpt:lowercasestrip@}}
+@tab expands to “user@@example.org”
+@end multitable
+
+For security concerns, expanded values are sanitized and potentially dangerous
+characters are replaced with ‘:’. In situations where they are desirable, the
+“raw” modifier may be applied. For example, with recipient
+@samp{“user+t?g@@example.org”}:
+
+@multitable {aaaaaaaaaaaaa} {aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa}
+@item @samp{%@{rcpt@}}
+@tab expands to “user+t:g@@example.org”
+@item @samp{%@{rcpt:raw@}}
+@tab expands to “user+t?g@@example.org”
+@end multitable
