spamassassin (3.3.1-2) unstable; urgency=low This version of spamassassin introduces a change in behavior when using SSL to encrypt communication between spamc and spamd. This change only affects usage of spamc or spamd with the --ssl option. Due to protocol insecurity, OpenSSL has removed support for SSL version 2. Consequently, the "sslv2" and "sslv23" options have been removed from spamc and spamd. The default option is sslv3. This change should be transparent unless you are using spamc or spamd with a peer that is explicitly configured to use only sslv2 -- Noah Meyerhans Sun, 10 Apr 2011 18:27:36 -0700 spamassassin (3.3.0-2) unstable; urgency=low Prior to version 3.3.0, spamassassin defaulted to having the auto-whitelist plugin enabled. This is no longer the case. If you wish to continue using it, you will want to add loadplugin Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::AWL to /etc/spamassassin/local.pre Additionally, note that if you have added any custom configuration options related to the auto-whitelist plugin (e.g. auto_whitelist_factory), the upgrade from to 3.3.0 from prior versions may fail unless you explicitly enable the plugin. -- Noah Meyerhans Sun, 28 Feb 2010 19:37:34 -0800 spamassassin (3.2.5-7) unstable; urgency=high This version of SpamAssassin fixes a bug which caused mails sent in 2010 to be flagged as suspiciously spammy. If upgrading to this version, you are recommended to update any per-user caches previously created by sa-compile, and to check mail already in your spam folder for false positives more carefully than usual. -- Joey Hess Fri, 01 Jan 2010 12:03:40 -0500 spamassassin (3.2.0-1) unstable; urgency=low This version of SpamAssassin contains a new feature which can be used to greatly improve the performance of SpamAssassin. Read README.Debian and the sa-compile man page for more information. This version now includes a cron job to automatically update the SpamAssassin rules on a daily basis. To enable it, edit /etc/default/spamassassin -- Duncan Findlay Mon, 21 May 2007 11:17:49 -0400 spamassassin (3.1.1-1) unstable; urgency=low This is a new upstream release containing mostly bug fixes. The largest change is the inclusion of a (fixed) script called sa-update that can be used to download the latest rules from upstream. To use it run sa-update as root. In the future, this may, by default, run from a cron job automatically, but in the interim it is a manual process. -- Duncan Findlay Sun, 7 May 2006 17:27:34 -0400 spamassassin (3.1.0a-1) unstable; urgency=low This is a new major upstream release with many new features. Detailed information on the upgrade is available in /usr/share/doc/spamassassin/UPGRADE.gz. The most important changes are documented here. If you have made local configuration changes, you will probably want to read that documentation to ensure you configuration is still correct. DCC and Razor support have been disabled by default, since they are no longer free for non-personal use. To re-enable them, edit /etc/spamassassin/v310.pre More Bayes storage modules have been added. The default, using perl's DB_File module, is the slowest. You may wish to switch to the SDBM storage module (uses perl's SDBM_File module). If you are currently using the SQL module, you may wish to switch to using the MySQL or PgSQL modules. To switch storage modules, follow the steps listed in the "MIGRATION" section of the sa-learn(1) man page. Spamd and spamc now support Bayes learning, if the --allow-tell or -l option is given to spamd. Please note that there may be security implications with enabling this option. (Command line options to spamd are changed in /etc/default/spamassassin) -- Duncan Findlay Wed, 5 Oct 2005 14:40:41 -0400
