I have just released a new beta test version, 4.34.6.
Unless there are horrible things wrong with this release, it will form the
basis of the next stable release which will appear in a few days time at
the start of October.
Download as usual from www.mailscanner.info.
The Change log is currently this:
* New Features and Improvements *
- Added "Bounce Spam As Attachment" and "Bounce MCP As Attachment" options.
These will cause the original message (up to the Max SpamAssassin Size so
it cannot be used for denial-of-service attacks) to be included in the
bounced message as an RFC/822 attachment, which some mail clients can read
very nicely. This lets the original sender see what message got bounced.
- Updated the Qmail support. See opencomputing.sf.net for more info on Qmail.
- Changed default supplied values for a few settings. This will have no effect
on upgraded installations, but will improve resource use for new
installations, such as not quarantining silent viruses which is pretty
much a waste of disk space and i/o load.
- Added POSIX back-compatibility switches to scripts wanting to use "tail".
- Added "Remove These Headers" setting to allow arbitrary headers, such as
delivery receipt requests, to be removed from mail.
- Implemented MCP support for SpamAssassin 3.0.0.
- Published packages for RPM and non-RPM systems to install ClamAV and
SpamAssassin 3.
- Adapted code to run with MIME-tools 5.412.
- Removed most of the MIME-tools version checks as the new code doesn't
specify versions for its components.
- Added a load more optional modules to the version number list so we get
all the modules required by SpamAssassin 3 and Mail::ClamAV.
- Added MIME-tools 5.413 and MIME-Base64 3.03. You must have these installed.
- Updated Catalan reports.
- Added support for NOD32 2.04.
- Added $longspamreport to sender.spam.sa report.
- Update Trend-autoupdate script so it supports Trend's new opr.ini file.
- Added 4 new MCP options to provide the same subject line modifications as
you can do with spam messages: "MCP Modify Subject", "MCP Subject Text",
"High Scoring MCP Modify Subject", "High Scoring MCP Subject Text".
The defaults are the same as for spam.
* Fixes *
- Fixed another Postfix perl buffering error on a few OS's.
- Added remaining MCP definitions to languages.conf files.
- Fixed installation problems with MIME-Base64.
- Fixed bug in Exim.pm where case of MAIL sender wasn't properly preserved.
- Fixed problem causing bitdefender-autoupdate to hang.
