notifications are now system level instead of user level.
To clarify the use events/notifications/email:
* eventlog - everything that is happenning on server
* notifications - specific important events (alerts)
* email - these are really urgent things that require immediate attention. this is for
the case where an admin does not visit the dashboard often. can also be alerts like
bad backup config or reboot required which are not events per-se.
Notes on notifications
* oom - notification only
* appUpdated - notification only
* cert renewal failure - only raise when < 10 days to go. also send email thereafter (todo).
* Backup failure - only if last 5 backups failed (todo).
* Box update - notification only. we anyway send newsletter.
* box update available - we raise a notification. no email.
* app update available - we already have update indicator on dashboard. so, no notification or email.
Alerts:
* backup config
* disk space
* mail status
* reboot
* box updated
* ubuntu update required
It's all very complicated.
Approach 1: Simple move unbound to not listen on 0.0.0.0 and only the internal
ones. However, docker has no way to bind only to the "public" interface.
Approach 2: Move the internal unbound to some other port. This required a PR
for haraka - https://github.com/haraka/Haraka/pull/2863 . This works and we use
systemd-resolved by default. However, it turns out systemd-resolved with hog the
lo and thus docker cannot bind again to port 53.
Approach 3: Get rid of systemd-resolved and try to put the dns server list in
/etc/resolv.conf. This is surprisingly hard because the DNS listing can come from
DHCP or netplan or wherever. We can hardcode some public DNS servers but this seems
not a good idea for privacy.
Approach 4: So maybe we don't move the unbound away to different port after all.
However, all the work for approach 2 is done and it's quite nice that the default
resolver is used with the default dns server of the network (probably a caching
server + also maybe has some home network firewalled dns).
So, the final solution is to bind to the make docker bind to the IP explicity.
It's unclear what will happen if the IP changes, maybe it needs a restart.
