### Commands refactored:
- User (**All:** add / list / update / del + _dovecot-master variants_)
- Quota (**All:** set / del)
- Virtual Alias (**All:** add / list /del)
- Relay (**All:** add-relayhost / add-sasl / exclude-domain)
### Overall changes involve:
- **Fairly common structure:**
- `_main` method at the top provides an overview of logical steps:
- After all methods are declared beneath it (_and imported from the new `helpers/database/db.sh`_), the `_main` is called at the bottom of the file.
- `delmailuser` additionally processes option support for `-y` prior to calling `_main`.
- `__usage` is now consistent with each of these commands, along with the `help` command.
- Most logic delegated to new helper scripts. Some duplicate content remains on the basis that it's low-risk to maintenance and avoids less hassle to jump between files to check a single line, usually this is arg validation.
- Error handling should be more consistent, along with var names (_no more `USER`/`EMAIL`/`FULL_EMAIL` to refer to the same expected value_).
- **Three new management scripts** (in `helpers/database/manage/`) using a common structure for managing changes to their respective "Database" config file.
- `postfix-accounts.sh` unified not only add and update commands, but also all the dovecot-master versions, a single password call for all 4 of them, with a 5th consumer of the password prompt from the relay command `addsaslpassword`.
- These scripts delegate actual writes to `helpers/database/db.sh` which provides a common API to support the changes made.
- This is more verbose/complex vs the current inline operations each command currently has, as it provides generic support instead of slightly different variations being maintained, along with handling some edge cases that existed and would lead to bugs (notably substring matches).
- Centralizing changes here seems wiser than scattered about. I've tried to make it easy to grok, hopefully it's not worse than the current situation.
- List operations were kept in their respective commands, `db.sh` is only really managing writes. I didn't see a nice way for removing the code duplication for list commands as the duplication was fairly minimal, especially for `listalias` and `listdovecotmasteruser` which were quite simple in their differences in the loop body.
- `listmailuser` and `delmailuser` also retain methods exclusive to respective commands, I wasn't sure if there was any benefit to move those, but they were refactored.
This helper was to support an earlier ENV for SASL auth support. When extracting logic into individual helpers, it was assumed this was separate from relay support, which it appears was not the case.
---
The `SASL_PASSWD` ENV is specified in tests but no longer used. There is no `external-domain.com` relay configured or tested against anywhere in the project.
The ENV was likely used in tests prior to improved relay support that allowed for adding more than a single set of relay credentials.
---
It likewise has no real relevance anywhere else outside of `relay.sh` as it's the only portion of code to operate with it.
It's only relevant for SASL auth as an SMTP client, not the SMTP server (`smtpd`) SASL support that is delegated to Dovecot. Functionality has been completely migrated into `relay.sh` as a result.
Documentation is poor for this ENV, it is unlikely in wide use? Should consider for removal.
---
The ENV has been dependent upon `RELAY_HOST` to actually enable postfix to use `/etc/postfix/sasl_passwd`, thus not likely relevant in existing setups?
---
Migrate `/etc/postfix/sasl_passwd` check from `tests.bats` as it belongs to relay tests.
* chore: Extract change-detection method to it's own helper
This doesn't really belong in `helpers/ssl.sh`. Moving to it's own helper script.
* chore: Co-locate related change-detection method from container startup
It seems relevant to migrate the related support during startup for the change detection feature into this helper.
I opted to move the call from `start-mailserver.sh` into the `_setup` call at the end for a more explicit/visible location.
* chore: Move `CHKSUM_FILE` into `helpers/change-detection.sh`
It belongs there, not in `helpers/index.sh`.
* chore: Revise inline documentation
* tests(fix): Ensure correct functionality
Presently `test/test_helper.bats` is using it's own `CHKSUM_FILE` instead of sourcing the var for the filepath.
`test_helper/common.bash` was calling a method to check for changes, but this helper may not correctly detect letsencrypt related changes as these are not ENV rely on, but global vars handled by `helpers/dns.sh`, so that should be run first like it is for `check-for-changes.sh`.
* tests(chore): Use `CHKSUM_FILE` var from helper
* chore: `addmailuser` should use `CHKSUM_FILE` var
* chore: Update `check-for-changes.sh` log message with correct path
Removes duplicate logic from `check-for-changes.sh` that is used/maintained elsewhere to avoid risk of problems, as this code is already starting to diverge / rot.
---
Previously the change detection support has had code added for rebuilding config upon change detection which is the same as code run during startup scripts. Unfortunately over time this has fallen out of sync. Mostly the startup scripts would get maintenance and the contributor and reviewers may not have been aware of the duplicate code handled by `check-for-changes.sh`.
That code was starting to diverge in addition to some changes in structure (_eg: relay host logic seems interleaved here vs separated out in startup scripts_). I wanted to address this before it risks becoming a much bigger headache.
Rather than bloat `helper-functions.sh` further, I've added a `helpers/` folder extracting relevant common logic between startup scripts and `changedetector`. If you want to follow that process I've kept scoped commits to make those diffs easier. Some minor changes/improvements were added but nothing significant.

- chore: Extract relay host logic to new `relay.sh` helper
- chore: Extract `/etc/postfix/sasl_passwd` logic to new `sasl.sh` helper
- chore: Extract `postfix-accounts.cf` logic to new `accounts.sh` helper
- chore: Extract `/etc/aliases` logic to new `aliases.sh` helper
- chore: Extract `/etc/postfix/vhost` logic to new `postfix.sh` helper
- chore: Add inline docs for Postfix configs
> These are possibly more verbose than needed and can be reduced at a later stage.
> They are helpful during this refactor process while investigating that everything is handled correctly.
`accounts.sh`:
- Add note regarding potential bug for bare domain setups with `/etc/postfix/vhost` and `mydestination` sharing same domain value.
`relay.sh`:
- Remove the tabs for a single space delimiter, revised associated comment.
- Add PR reference for original `_populate_relayhost_map` implementation which has some useful details.
