<p class="MsoNormal">I do understand that the process of upgrading to CentOS 7 is ... daunting, and seem wasteful when all you need is a better SpamAssassin, but ... CentOS 5 has served you long and true, and should be put to rest;-)<u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I did a new install on CentOS 7 when it was first released... It was a pain, especially the systemd stuff, and trying to cope with SElinux (maaany "local" rules:-)). But after that, it actually works very well.<u></u><u></u></p>
</div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Sure, the whole toolchain need be updated and adjusted (and some things is simply done ... differently...:-)), but it is a good move, that will buy you peace of mind for a relatively long time.<u></u><u></u></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">Trying to maintain a distro that is no longer supported... is a loosing battle/not worth your time, IMO.<u></u><u></u></p>
