This is to announce the pre-release of Qmail-Scanner 2.00. This is a major upgrade over 1.25 - the version jump represents this (there were no 1.26+ publicly released).
I want this pre-release to go out first so that the "more enthusiastic" can give it a "once over" and see if there are any glaring mistakes in functionality, or in documentation. I am especially interested in people going over the other languages and ensuring any changes made haven't lead to silly sounding statements :-) This has been used in our production environments for some months now - but please ensure you totally understand the new configuration options, etc before testing on real traffic. As mentioned above, the one outstanding thing I need help with is to sort out the localizations. Once the languages changes are merged in, I expect to officially release 2.00, so please send the required changes in ASAP. Major changes can be summarized as: * Big name changes. Default dir is now /var/spool/qscand, and the Policy control file is now called quarantine-events.txt. You will all need to manually re-create any local blocks you had in the old quarantine-attachments.txt * support for quarantining high-scoring SPAM. These have been totally stolen from the more comprehensive work done by Salvatore Toribio * normalization of attachment and headers via MIME::Base64 support. This is so that you can achieve consistent policy blocks irrespective how how the malware author creates them * Quarantine broken up into sub-folders: viruses, policy and spam (for high-scoring spam) * Can now set a maximum message size above which Qmail-Scanner will not run AV and anti-Spam scanners (--max-scan-size). Defaults to 100Mbytes This release is not part of the normal Qmail-Scanner/Sourceforge system - I don't want new users using this until it is "official".
