Spamassassin has more than one or two users now and I
personally think that it should have a support forum to
match the class of software, which is now world class.
I know it's free and all that, but even so, if this is
the only form of support they provide, I'm thinking that
I'll just start an alternative support forum, using
standard, full featured forum software (like SMF).
Is there any support for this (I already know there will
be opposition from those who are 'resident' here. Sorry
guys, I just want do something to help those who just
dive in when they have an urgent problem. No hard
feelings I hope.)

SMF is not a standard. Email is a standard, or at least some RFC's.
I have no plans for browsing some website for this. A mailing list is free,
push type service, which I prefer.
Mailing lists are much better. I'm signed up for a couple of dozen
mailing lists and they pretty much all work exactly the same. I don't
want to learn a couple of dozen different types of web based forum software.
When I send a message to a mailing list, it gets pushed out to the
mailboxes of everyone who is a member, and when they respond I get an
almost immediate response in my mailbox. Far more efficient than forum
software.
