LOL, it is official, I am taking my own advice. I am upgrading my live server from 2.4x! And I think the experiment was a complete success!!!!
I never upgraded live server from 2.4x because I wanted to see how good I could get that system working without Bayes and net tests. 2.4x ran perfectly the whole time! Caught about 99%. This was due to BigEvil and SARE. (Also denying at the MTA level with standard RBLs.) I wanted to prove to myself that Bayes wasn't needed, and I did. I intend to let anyone know that complaining about SA not catching all, is wrong! Proper administration of SA is the key. If a 2 year old version (might be older then that!) can block 99%, then it ain't the software ;) The main reason I'm updating is SURBL support, and being on the same page as the rest of the SARE ninjas. (They were making fun of my old sword!) The devs should be proud that their older version still kicks butt. And when you read all the dooms day articles on spam by the media, sit back and chuckle with me. Think to yourself, "Hell, the solution was made many years ago, you just need to use it!" Well....on to reconfiguring the server! If I don't answer peoples' email in the next few days....something went horribly wrong ;) --Chris (Hmmm.... Perl version 5.00x running.....this is gonna be fun!)
