Kaiy Belist 39759db7c2 - Inter-node Protocol: Implemented a custom communication protocol based on Protobuf structures.

- Bridge Node Support: Added functionality to manage mail (send/receive) on remote nodes via a bridge node. Full transparent management requires a private key on the bridge, while the remote node can operate with only a public key.
 - End-to-End Encryption (E2EE): Integrated E2EE using age. Encryption and decryption occur strictly at the bridge level; node administrators cannot access message content.
 - New Addressing Schema: Transitioned from nodepub@yggmail to userpub@nodepub.
 - Key Adaptation: Implemented ed25519 to x25519 coordinate adaptation, allowing signing keys to be used for encryption.

Changed
 - Address Encoding: Switched from hex16 to base32 for the address space.
 - Memory Optimization: Replaced direct memory allocations with streaming for mail processing to reduce RAM overhead.
 - Code Refactoring: Performed decomposition of the original inherited codebase to improve maintainability.

Fixed
 - Mail Updates: Fixed the mail retrieval mechanism to ensure near-instant updates for incoming messages.

Ygggo

Ygggo is a fork of Yggmail. It is a single-binary, all-in-one Mail Transfer Agent (MTA) that sends and receives email natively over the Yggdrasil Network.

🚀 Key Improvements in Ygggo (Changelog)

This fork introduces several architectural shifts and performance optimizations:

New Addressing Scheme: Migrated from hex16 to base32. Addresses now follow the format: <userpub>@<nodepub>.
Inter-node Protocol: Implemented a custom node-to-node communication protocol using Protobuf structures.
Bridge Architecture: * Nodes can now act as bridges. You can connect to a remote node from a bridge to fetch or send mail transparently.
Private keys are only required on the bridge; the end-node can operate with public keys only, simplifying administration.
End-to-End Encryption (E2EE): * Integrated age encryption. Emails are encrypted at the source and decrypted only at the destination bridge.
Privacy: Node administrators cannot see the content of the emails passing through or stored on the node.
Mathematical Key Adaptation: Leverages the fact that ed25519 signing keys can be converted for x25519 encryption, allowing your existing identity keys to handle E2EE seamlessly.
Performance & Refactoring:
Streaming: Switched from direct memory allocations to data streaming for mail handling.
Instant Sync: Fixed mail retrieval updates; new mail is now detected and pushed almost instantly.
Code Quality: Significant decomposition of the original codebase for better maintainability.

Features

Sovereign Hosting: Your inbox is stored on your own machine or node.
Standard Protocols: Implements IMAP and SMTP, making it compatible with clients like Thunderbird, Outlook, or DeltaChat.
Automatic Discovery: Discovers peers on the same LAN via multicast or connects to global static peers.
Native Privacy: All traffic between nodes is end-to-end encrypted by Yggdrasil, with an additional layer of age encryption for the mail content.

Quickstart

1. Installation

Install the binary using Go:

go install github.com/kaiyga/ygggo/cmd/yggmail@latest
export PATH=$PATH:`go env GOPATH`/bin

2. Configuration

Create your mailbox and set a password for your mail client:

yggmail -password

3. Execution

Start the node with multicast enabled or connect to a public peer:

# Using a specific peer
yggmail -peer=tls://...

# Using multicast for local discovery
yggmail -multicast

Your email address will be printed in the logs at startup.

4. Client Setup

Connect your favorite mail client to the following local endpoints:

SMTP: localhost:1025 (No SSL/TLS, Plain Password)
IMAP: localhost:1143 (No SSL/TLS, Plain Password)
Username: Your full Ygggo address.

Parameters

Switch	Description
`-peer=...`	Connect to a specific Yggdrasil node (e.g., `tls://...`).
`-multicast`	Enable multicast discovery for LAN nodes.
`-database`	Path to the `yggmail.db` file (default is current directory).
`-smtp`	Listening address/port for SMTP (default `127.0.0.1:1025`).
`-imap`	Listening address/port for IMAP (default `127.0.0.1:1143`).
`-password`	Set your IMAP/SMTP password interactively.
`-passwordhash`	Set the IMAP/SMTP password using a pre-generated bcrypt hash.

Important Notes

Uptime: Ygggo must be running to receive inbound emails.
Closed Ecosystem: You can only email other Ygggo/Yggmail users. It does not route to the public Internet (Gmail, etc.).
Client Compatibility: You may need to enable "Allow insecure authentication" in your mail client since the local listeners do not use SSL/TLS yet.
Size Limit: Emails are currently capped at default 10mb max 4GB.
