Release Highlights
Vectis Mail ships on a fast, steady cadence. This page is a curated tour of the milestones rather than a per-commit changelog — for the full, version-by-version detail (every fix and internal change), see the GitHub Releases.
Current stable release: v0.1.39.
Foundation — general availability
Section titled “Foundation — general availability”The first GA release established the full self-hosted, multi-tenant mail platform: Postfix and Dovecot for transport and storage, Rspamd and ClamAV for filtering, a modern admin console, per-domain DKIM signing, automatic TLS certificates via Let’s Encrypt, and a first-class REST API. One install, your domains, your server — standard protocols throughout.
Spam filtering & deliverability
Section titled “Spam filtering & deliverability”- Advanced per-domain spam filtering (Pro). Per-domain reject thresholds, greylisting toggles, and sender allow/block lists — tune one tenant without touching the rest, with changes taking effect in seconds.
- DKIM that heals itself. Signing keys are generated, permissioned, and reconciled automatically across upgrades, closing the classic “unsigned mail after a config change” gap.
- Deliverability self-check. A built-in
vectis domain checkverifies SPF, DKIM, DMARC, and DNS alignment so you can confirm a domain is set up to land in the inbox before you send.
Migration & provisioning
Section titled “Migration & provisioning”- Native IMAP import. Move existing mailboxes into Vectis Mail directly over IMAP — no external tooling — with progress tracking and cancellation.
- SCIM 2.0 provisioning (Enterprise). Automated user lifecycle management from your identity provider.
Single sign-on & Enterprise
Section titled “Single sign-on & Enterprise”- OIDC SSO (Pro) and SAML 2.0 SSO (Enterprise) for federated login.
- The Enterprise tier adds SAML SSO, SCIM provisioning, a business-hours support SLA, and GDPR DSAR export & erasure — flat per-tenant pricing, never per seat.
Backup & disaster recovery
Section titled “Backup & disaster recovery”- Scheduled, encrypted backups with configurable schedule and retention, editable from the admin UI, plus off-host synchronisation so a single host failure is never a single point of data loss.
- Hardened, atomic restore so a recovery can’t leave the system half-restored.
Security & supply chain
Section titled “Security & supply chain”- Sustained security hardening. A dedicated pre-launch hardening programme tightened authentication (per-account and per-IP login rate limiting, TOTP replay protection), added CSRF protection, enforced API-key domain scoping, bounded inbound-message resource use, and moved secret hashing to Argon2id.
- Signed releases (Ed25519). Every release binary and release manifest is signed with an offline Ed25519 key whose public half is compiled into the product, and verified in-process before any self-update — defence against a compromised download origin. Releases also ship an SPDX SBOM and keyless cosign signatures for the binary and every container image.
Licensing
Section titled “Licensing”- Offline licence verification for Pro and Enterprise entitlements, so a licensed install keeps working through transient network or provider issues.
