I didn't feel like going to the trouble of subscribing to the dev list just to post a thank-you message, so I'll post it here. I want to thank all the developers and contributors to this terrific spam-marking program. I was able to install it on our incoming SMTP mail server here at Crutchfield Corporation (RH Linux 8, djb's qmail, spamd, qmail-spamc called via qmail-queue patch), and it works great. Some people in the company were on the verge of screaming because their email was all but unusable, and now it's at least manageable. And recently I also installed the DCC client, and it added no processing time that I can detect but the false negatives got even better.
Until some miracle happens and we (1) start charging perfectly liquid micropayments for each SMTP transaction, or (2) change the entire SMTP infrastructure to a certificate-based, permission-before-mailing system (neither of which is going to happen), automatic marking engines are probably the best tool we've got. I know spam detection is an imperfect science, and it's always going to be a cat-and-mouse game with the spammers to see who can sneak into our users' mailboxes. But I'm very glad the SpamAssassin crew is on my side! -- Jeff Saxe, Network Engineer Crutchfield Corporation Charlottesville, Virginia, USA ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Perforce Software.
