Subject: MailScanner ANNOUNCE: 4.70.6 released
Message-ID: <4858191B.4010103@ecs.soton.ac.uk>

I have just released the latest stable version of MailScanner, version 
4.70.6.

The main new features this time are:
- Now supports Mail::ClamAV 0.22, ClamAV 0.93.1, and SpamAssassin 3.2.5.
- New setting "Dont Sign HTML If Headers Exist" to provide finer control 
over placement of HTML signatures.
- All known problems with Watermarks fixed.
- Improvements to filename and filetype checks to allow for common 
mistakes in filename patterns.
- Added "ID Header" setting to allow the X-MailScanner-ID: header to be 
customised or removed.
- Minor improvements to the phishing net.
- Improvement to checking of "Sophos Allowed Error Messages".

Download as usual from www.mailscanner.info.

The full Change Log is this:

* New Features and Improvements *
1 Improvement to OLE document unpacking code, more likely to extract 
embedded
  files correctly.
1 Added new setting "Dont Sign HTML If Headers Exist" to provide finer 
control
  over placement of HTML signatures. If any of the named headers exist in
  the message, the message is deemed to be a "reply", and so the HTML
  signature is not attached. By default this functionality is switched off
  by not specifying any header names.
2 Improvement to Filename and Filetype checks to catch mistakenly starting a
  regular expression with a "*" on its own, as in "*.pdf" or just "*".
2 Improved message reporting when Sophos finds password-protected zip 
archives.
2 Now supports Mail::ClamAV 0.22 for ClamAV 0.93. You will need to 
upgrade your
  ClamAV+SpamAssassin installation, using the download package I provide.
3 Improved update_bad_phishing_sites to support proxy_* environment 
variables.
  Thanks to Heinz.Knutzen@dataport.de for this.
3 Improved upgrade_MailScanner_conf for ClamAV 0.93 and Mail::ClaAV 0.22.
3 Removed URIBL additions from spam.assassin.prefs.conf. They are in
  SpamAssassin by default now.
3 Improvements to handling of Watermarks to resolve various problems 
with them.
3 Upgraded to ClamAV 0.93.1 in ClamAV+SpamAssassin easy-to-install package.
4 Added "-w" to suggested "diff" command in upgrade_MailScanner_conf. Thanks
  to Anthony Cartmell for this idea.
6 Changed Watermarking, so it only checks if there was a SMTP client IP 
address
  as we don't want to block messages we generated on the MailScanner server.
6 Added "ID Header" setting so that you can choose whether or not you want
  the header showing the MailScanner message id value. If you don't want the
  header then set this to be blank.
6 Minor improvement to link detection in the phishing net.

* Fixes *
2 Silly mistake fixed in "Dont Sign HTML If Headers Exist" feature.
2 Fixed output text error in upgrade_MailScanner_conf.
3 Bugfixes to Watermark handling and logging.
4 More fixes to Watermark handling.
5 More fixes to Watermark handling, and a minor header change.
6 Made check for Sophos Allowed Error Messages case-insensitive.
