new alternative to spamassassin

2011-07-07 Thread John Roman

Greetings,
I found an interesting alternative to spamassassin and was curious if 
anyone on postfix-users was using this, or had any opinion?


its called rspamd, and is developed by a russian fellow
named Vsevolod Stakhov

https://bitbucket.org/vstakhov/rspamd/wiki/Home

some of its features include:

* Completely asynchronous filtering that allows a big number of 
simultenious connections.


* Easily extendable architecture that can be extended by plugins 
written in lua and by dynamicaly loaded plugins written in c.


* Ability to work in cluster: rspamd is able to perform statfiles 
synchronization, dynamic load of lists via HTTP, to use distributed fuzzy 
hashes storage.


* Advanced statistics: rspamd now is shipped with winnow-osb 
classifier that provides more accurate statistics than traditional 
bayesian algorithms based on single words.


* Internal optimizer: rspamd first of all try to check rules that were 
met more often, so for huge spam storms it works very fast as it just 
checks only that rules that can happen and skip all others.


* Ability to manage the whole cluster by using controllerprocess.

* Compatibility with existing spamassassin SPAMC protocol.

* Extended RSPAMC protocol that allows to pass many additional data
from SMTP dialog to rspamd filter.

* Internal support of IMAP in rspamc client for automated learning.

* Internal support of many anti-spam technologies, among them are SPF 
and SURBL.


* Active support and development of new features.
