Fedora Test Update Notification
FEDORA-2004-072
2004-02-10
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Name        : spamassassin
Version     : 2.63
Release     : 0.1
Summary     : Spam filter for email which can be invoked from mail 
delivery agents.
Description :
SpamAssassin provides you with a way to reduce if not completely eliminate
Unsolicited Commercial Email (SPAM) from your incoming email.  It can
be invoked by a MDA such as sendmail or postfix, or can be called from
a procmail script, .forward file, etc.  It uses a genetic-algorithm
evolved scoring system to identify messages which look spammy, then
adds headers to the message so they can be filtered by the user's mail
reading software.  This distribution includes the spamd/spamc components
which create a server that considerably speeds processing of mail.

To enable spamassassin, if you are receiving mail locally, simply add
this line to your ~/.procmailrc:
INCLUDERC=/etc/mail/spamassassin/spamassassin-default.rc

To filter spam for all users, add that line to /etc/procmailrc
(creating if necessary).

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

This update from spamassassin-2.60 to 2.63 in FC1 should fix many
bugs and improve spam detection capability.  See the release notes
at the upstream spamassassin.org for more information.

This release also enables spamc/spamd optional OpenSSL support.

Please discuss this test update on fedora-test-list.
Report definite findings of success or failure to this
Test Update Tracking report after you have sufficiently
tested spamassassin's range of features in production.

If no regressions are confirmed by February 20th, 2004 then this
update should become final.  This date may be moved sooner if the
feedback is overwhelmingly postive from many high traffic mail admins.
