Hi all, I'm about to start a new installation of Spamassassin on Redhat 7.3
I've read the warning about Perl on spamassassin.org: ************************************************************************ **** Note for Perl 5.8 Users (incl Red Hat 8) ---------------------------------------- Perl 5.8 now uses Unicode internally by default, which causes trouble for SpamAssassin (and almost all other reasonably complex pieces of perl code!). We've worked around this in most places, as far as we know, but there may still be some issues. In addition, there is a speed hit, which it would be nice to avoid. Setting the LANG environment variable before any invocation of SpamAssassin sometimes seems to help fix it, like so: export LANG=en_US Notably, the LANG setting must not include "utf8". However, some folks have reported that this makes no difference. ;) ************************************************************************ **** So I wonder if it's clever to install perl 5.8 or I'd better stay on 5.6 ?
