go-imap-sql
SQL-based storage backend for go-imap libraries.
Building
Go 1.11 is required because we are using modules. Things may work on older versions but these configurations will not be supported.
RDBMS support
go-imap-sql is known to work with (and constantly being tested against) following RDBMS:
- SQLite 3.25.0
- MySQL 5.7 (or MariaDB 10.2)
- PostgreSQL 9.6
Note: MySQL 5.7 support is deprecated since it's addition and not even strictly safe to use. Please stick to using newer versions (MySQL 8 or compatible MariaDB version) when possible.
IMAP Extensions Supported
Due to go-imap architecture, some extensions require support from used backend. Here are extensions supported by go-imap-sql:
- CHILDREN
- APPEND-LIMIT
UIDPLUS(planned)- MOVE
UIDVALIDITY
go-imap-sql never invalidates UIDs in an existing mailbox. If mailbox is DELETE'd then UIDVALIDITY value changes.
Unlike many popular IMAP server implementations, go-imap-sql uses randomly generated UIDVALIDITY values instead of timestamps.
This makes several things easier to implement with less edge cases. And answer to the question you are already probably asked: To make go-imap-sql malfunction you need to get Go's PRNG to generate two equal integers in range of [1, 2^32-1] just at right moment (seems unlikely enough to ignore it). Even then, it will not cause much problems due to the way most client implementations work.
go-imap-sql uses separate math/rand.Rand instance and seeds it with system
time on initialization (in NewBackend).
You can provide custom pre-seeded struct implementing math/rand.Source
in Opts struct (PRNG field).
Maddy
You can use go-imap-sql as part of the maddy mail server.
imapsql-ctl
For direct access to database you can use imapsql-ctl console utility. See more information in separate README here.
go install github.com/foxcpp/go-imap-sql/cmd/imapsql-ctl

Types ¶
type AppendLimitBackend ¶
type AppendLimitBackend interface {
appendlimit.Backend
// SetMessageLimit sets new value for limit.
// nil pointer means no limit.
SetMessageLimit(val *uint32) error
}
AppendLimitBackend is extension for main backend interface (backend.Backend) which allows to set append limit value for testing and administration purposes.
type AppendLimitMbox ¶
type AppendLimitMbox interface {
CreateMessageLimit() *uint32
// SetMessageLimit sets new value for limit.
// nil pointer means no limit.
SetMessageLimit(val *uint32) error
}
AppendLimitMbox is extension for backend.Mailbox interface which allows to set append limit value for testing and administration purposes.
type AppendLimitUser ¶
type AppendLimitUser interface {
appendlimit.User
// SetMessageLimit sets new value for limit.
// nil pointer means no limit.
SetMessageLimit(val *uint32) error
}
AppendLimitUser is extension for backend.User interface which allows to set append limit value for testing and administration purposes.
type IMAPUsersDB ¶
type UsersDB ¶
type UsersDB interface {
// CreateUser creates new user with specified username.
//
// No mailboxes are created for new user, even INBOX. This should be done
// manually using CreateMailbox.
//
// It is error to create user which already exists. ErrUserAlreadyExists
// will be returned in this case.
CreateUser(username, password string) error
// DeleteUser deletes user account from backend storage, along with all
// mailboxes and messages.
//
// It is error to delete user which doesn't exists. ErrUserDoesntExists
// will be returned in this case.
DeleteUser(username string) error
// SetUserPassword updates password of existsing user.
//
// It is error to update user which doesn't exists. ErrUserDoesntExists
// will be returned in this case.
SetUserPassword(username, newPassword string) error
}
UsersDB is additional backend interface that allows external code to perform administrative actions on backend's storage related to users.
