Thanks for the lead, it looks interesting. My problem is that of time and a learning curve at the moment is a tough thing which is why I’ve been asking for help on the list. Assp must be gearing up toward a commercial market or something, mainly for professional users is all I can think. I can’t take being abused verbally by Fritz anymore and no one else ever offers to help so like you say, time to look at an alternative.

Honestly my friend ... ASSP is garbage. Way to complicated for what it supposedly does. I have operated mail servers for 20 years, and it is not worth the hassle. Support is weak and it's just over complicated with a bad UI. I moved to Baruwa. I'm not sure how your setup is. Take a look at it though. -- Jeremy McSpadden Flux Labs, Inc | http://www.fluxlabs.net | Endless Solutions Office : 850-250-5590x101 | Cell : 850-890-2543 | Fax : 850-254-2955 On May 19, 2013, at 12:22 PM, "m...@grounded.net" <m...@grounded.net> wrote: BTW, if you are willing to help users, even for a FEE that I have offered openly, why have you not responded to my BEGGING for help in other threads? My ASSP 2.x doesn't work because the rebuild won't run, it continues to kill assp.

Allen, You don't have to protect anyone ho didn't do anything wrong, you are "protecting" me, but you are really twisting the facts here. We did chat more than one evening, i made some progress but you were the one who who didn't had the time to help me answer the questions i had. This project and all opensource projects consists of volunteers who do their best to help you and all the other people who have problems or issues with for example ASSP. I am willing to help, but since you were the person who needed the help, i expect full dedication when i or other people are actually helping you, that wasn't the case fmpov. Since the last conversation we had, you did not send me an email or tried to contact me again. so i lost all about this (the chat remind me). The last i remember is that your setup was wrong but you couldn't change it right away, after that it was dead silence! So it is a bit disappointed that you did not had that rush in october 2012 (?!) waited for more than a half year and posted that we are not willing to help, strange! Best regards, Pascal Dreissen PS: So if you need help, there are enough people who are willing to help, but the biggest dedication comes from your self if you need the issues cleared, don't wait ... act! Op 18 mei 2013, om 23:18 heeft Allen Williams <al...@sustainablehosting.com> het volgende geschreven: Hello there again, everyone.... So, ok. A long while back i set up a server and installed assp on it because some domains i manage have emails that are basically useless due to the spam. I found myself quickly over my head with all the settings and options and came to this list to ask for help, evidently like many others have. I even offered to pay some amount to be agreed upon later. Very quickly, someone offered help. Now although i find the way this person suddenly just 'disappeared' on me, ignoring all attempts to communicate, after saying he's willing to help ESPECIALLY bothers me as a disrespectful waste of my time where 'sorry i decided not to help' would have been comparatively welcome, i am not here to slander anyone.. But i will say it's someone affiliated with the project whose name doesn't start with F like the guy i saw someone else complaining about [is this an epidemic!?]. Lets just say that from his name, the connotations of solid math, logic and programming i got left me very disappointed indeed. Long story short, we ended up getting nowhere and i still need help AND NOT THE KIND THAT JUST DISAPPEARS. If i cant get that, that's fine but i need to make that determination ASAP before clients leave. Here's the situation. I'm running ASSP version 1.X on a server that is now down with the MX records moved back to the main mailserver because the filter never did quite enough while still catching important mails to users in the filter..And there being no web interface, my admin load suddenly ROSE looking through blocked messages and sending them through. At the same time the system never appeared to 'learn' much from the loads of ham and spam we told it about. Before disappearing, the person helping me mentioned something about there being not enough ham in the system and that the outside saw ASSP as an open relay.. So i am wondering if there is another person REALLY willing to help me out on this. I am setting a deadline of wednesday to get someone on board; at that time ill just decomm the server and break down and buy filtering somewhere :( which would suck extra hard since we've been telling ASSP whats good and whats not for so long! Plus of course we want to use and support open source as much as possible.. Since we did begin work and had one evening with 45min where he looked at our setup and commented on it in skype, i have that chat. Anyone thinking they may be able to help can read this chat and have some of their first questions answered, possibly enough that they can already figure out if they can help or if i should just give up. The chat is at http://pastebin.com/AvFgHJEW and its been sanitized so as to protect the guilty as well as the login to the server, which is also down until i can find some HELP! Please let me know something soon.
