Each domain has its own +DKIM keypair, its own catchall, and its own mailboxes. The first entry +in `domains` is the default — bare local parts resolve against it. + +The change preserves the single-binary, single-operator model. There +are no new multi-tenant features (no per-domain ACLs, no per-domain +rate limits, no hosted-service surface). + +### What changes on first restart after upgrade + +The upgrade migration runs **atomically on the first `aimx serve` +startup under the new binary**. It is idempotent (guarded by +`/var/lib/aimx/.layout-version`) — subsequent restarts are no-ops. + +For an existing single-domain install on `mydomain.com`: + +1. **`config.toml` is visibly rewritten** from the v1 shape to the + normalized multi-domain shape: + - `domain = "mydomain.com"` → `domains = ["mydomain.com"]` + - `[mailboxes.info]` → `[mailboxes."info@mydomain.com"]` (every + local-part-keyed mailbox is re-keyed to its FQDN) + - Per-domain sub-tables (`[domain.""]`) remain absent until you + add an override. + +2. **Storage relocates** from + `/var/lib/aimx/{inbox,sent}//` to + `/var/lib/aimx//{inbox,sent}//`.

The key + material is unchanged; only the on-disk path moves. + +4. A `.layout-version` marker is written so the migration runs + exactly once. + +The change is **purely structural** — there are no semantic +differences for single-domain installs. Inbound continues to route to +the same mailboxes, outbound continues to sign with the same DKIM +key, hooks continue to fire the same way. `aimx mailboxes list` and +the MCP `mailbox_list` tool return FQDN names +(`info@mydomain.com`) instead of bare local parts — that's the only +observable difference at the API boundary. + +`aimx upgrade` prints a one-screen reminder of these points before +completing. + +### What's new + +- `aimx domains list` — print configured domains with DKIM status and + per-domain mailbox counts. +- `aimx domains add ` — append a domain to `domains`, + generate a DKIM keypair, print DNS records, verify, hot-reload. +- `aimx domains remove [--force]` — remove a domain, with + cascade-delete via `--force`.

Typical +trigger: `/var/lib/aimx/` lives on a different filesystem from where +the per-domain subdirectory would land (e.g. someone bind-mounted +`inbox/` onto a separate volume). + +Fix: the upgrade migration uses `rename(2)` exclusively for atomicity, +which only works within one filesystem. Move `/var/lib/aimx/` so that +the per-domain subtree lives on the same filesystem as `inbox/` and +`sent/` did before the upgrade (or vice versa), then restart the +daemon. The migration is idempotent — it'll detect the half-migrated +state and resume from the first incomplete step. + +### Half-migrated install: some files on the new layout, some on the old + +Symptom: after a failed migration, `aimx logs` shows the migration +aborted partway through.
