Lands the §9.4 operability tier of postal/mailAudit.md as one PR on top of
the §9.3 stack (PR #101). Seven items, all independent of each other but
sharing the same notifications surface.
#15 Postal send_limit fuse — set per-hour cap (already applied LIVE in DB:
servers.send_limit = 500). A runaway loop now hits Postal's own throttle
long before flooding recipient ISPs into a rate-limit penalty.
#16noreply@sase.tr decommission — change default fromAddress in both
email.service.ts and config/configuration.ts to destek@sase.tr. `noreply@`
had no inbound route so user replies bounced; `destek@` lands in the
SnappyMail destek inbox. Overridable via POSTAL_FROM_ADDRESS env per workflow
that genuinely shouldn't accept replies.
#21 Welcome CTA fallback — flip the {{else}} branch in novu-welcome.html
from https://sase.tr to https://sase.tr/dashboard (the actual onboarding
entry, not the marketing page). Already pushed live to Novu Mongo too.
#17 Open-pixel embed — new buildTrackPixelUrl() in novu.ts; injected
trackPixel payload into welcome/trial-ending/win-back/referral×3/
payment×2 NovuService methods + lifecycle-email.processor. Auth flows
(email-verification, password-reset) deliberately skip the pixel.
Templates updated with {{#if trackPixel}}<img ...>{{/if}} just before the
footer; 8 templates touched, 2 (auth) skipped. Novu Mongo updated.
#18 Signed-URL exp / replay-resistance — track.sase.tr Worker /c endpoint
now expects `e=<unix-ms>` + `s=HMAC(MID|TARGET|EXP)`. Expired signatures
return 410. Legacy signatures (no `e=`) still accepted while in-flight
mail with old links drains; remove that branch ~30 days post-deploy.
buildTrackedUrl() now mints exp=now+30d.
#19 D1 retention cron — Cloudflare Cron Trigger added to mailtrack worker
(`17 4 * * *` UTC, after Europe/Istanbul cron settles). `scheduled` handler
DELETEs events older than RETENTION_DAYS (default 90). Both code and the
cron schedule are LIVE on the production worker.
#20 Lifecycle sent-flag idempotency — new `lifecycle_email_sent` table
(migration 0012) keyed (user_id, workflow). Replaces the 1-day endDate
window's at-most-once trick that lost cohorts on skipped days. Cron now
LEFT JOINs and writes the row immediately after each successful trigger.
Historical seed in scripts/backfill-lifecycle-sent.sql (19 trial-ending +
5 win-back users — generated from postal-server-1.messages) so the first
post-deploy cron doesn't re-send to users we already mailed.
## Live infrastructure (deploy-independent)
- Postal MariaDB: `UPDATE servers SET send_limit = 500`.
- Cloudflare Worker mailtrack redeployed with new /c logic + scheduled handler.
- Cloudflare Worker: cron `17 4 * * *` registered on production env.
- Cloudflare Worker: RETENTION_DAYS=90 plain_text binding.
- Novu Mongo: 16 messagetemplates updated with pixel + Welcome /dashboard.
## Companion deploy steps post-merge
1. `pnpm db:generate` to refresh drizzle snapshots for 0011 + 0012.
2. Run `scripts/backfill-lifecycle-sent.sql` against prod + dev BEFORE the
first cron tick post-deploy.
3. Apply host-side novu-patches/apply-headers-patch.sh again if Novu
container rolled (idempotent).
## Verification
curl /c?…e=<future>… ⇒ 302 new-style signature accepted
curl /c?…(no e)… ⇒ 302 legacy signature still accepted (drain)
curl /c?…e=<past>… ⇒ 410 expired signature rejected
curl /c?…s=bad… ⇒ 403 bad signature rejected
CF API schedules ⇒ `17 4 * * *` live on mailtrack worker.
