# Changelog for chatmail deployment
## [1.11.0] - 2026-05-15
### Breaking Changes
- [**breaking**] Drop passthrough_sender and passthrough_recipients chatmail.ini options to eliminate one more source of unencrypted messages
### Features
- Use filtermail for delivery to remote MTAs
- Expose metadata "maxsmtprecipients" value
- Support setup without domain, with only an IPv4 address (#963)
- *(doc/docker)* Introduce docker images in documentation
- DKIM-sign bounce messages (mainly "user does not exist")
- *(config)* Load default values from Config(), not chatmail.ini.f (#853)
- Make turn_socket_path configurable, and cleanup tests and turnserver code.
- Warn about any unused chatmail.ini parameter at the end of "cmdeploy run"
### Bug Fixes
- Make www tests work with editable instead of just plain installs
- Use path with no leading slash for mxdeliv
- Increase filtermail-transport concurrency limit
- Fix #972 by increasing file descriptors for filtermail
- *(mtail)* Correct boot ordering and deploy restart logic
- *(cmdeploy)* Stop and disable unbound-resolvconf
- *(nginx)* Properly redirect www to mail_domain
- *(dns)* Query correct NS if MNAME server is hidden (#954)
- Legacy token metadata storage used list type, but if no new setmetadata happened, the user would not be notified at all.
- *(logging)* Log all http requests to syslog
### Documentation
- Document how to upgrade to new version (#965)
### Other
- *(deps)* Upgrade to filtermail v0.6.4
### Refactor
- Introduce automated change-tracking across deployers

clone the `relay repository <https://github.com/chatmail/relay/>` to the server where the relay is running,
