2003-07-02 Thread Max Paperno
Hello, A quick note to let anyone interested know that I've released a new version of the spampd script (not to be confused with spamd). There's a few new features, but the main improvement is in terms of reliability. The script no longer takes any responsibility for the mail, acting as a tra
