When ut us supposed to be dealing with the constantly movie target of malicious 
emails, no, I don’t like to see it stop updating.

Besides that, there are some pretty serious bugs in amavis-new that have not 
been addressed.

In fact, I do not currently have it installed.

and spampd, mimedefang, canit, canit-pro, procmail, fuglu

will possible die aswell then ? :=)

note rspamd can be used in amavisd aswell as dspam, amavisd is a 
framework like mimedefang and fuglu, dont know how its with caanit and 
canit-pro


others might sheed some lights on that

You can't compare one-man shop to a proper Apache open-source project.  Some
committers will come and go, but it's there for anyone to maintain without
silly forking or such.  I'm also personally committing a LOT right now to
clean it up.  :-)

And who gave you the mandate to decide what is and what is not "an
Amavis-job"? ;-) See https://www.ijs.si/software/amavisd/#features --
amavisd-new is designed to handle DKIM, did so in versions 2.10.x, and
partially broke it in 2.11.0.

Oh, and of course OpenDKIM is fine. Most features of amavisd-new can be
replaced by using other software, which may even be better at it. I am
now actively looking into phasing out amavisd-new.

Re: Is amavisd-new still being maintained?

2018-10-08 Thread Marco

Hello,
 I use Amavis as interface to Spamassassin and DSPAM, using the 
Spamassassin DSPAM plugin.


This setup is very useful to have a global spam protection and a fast 
per-user learn "on error" (DSPAM), configured through LDAP.
With the LDAP ExtLookupDriver I can map all mailboxes aliases on each 
own account. With Spamassassin rules I can tune all different 
contributes to the final score. (I don't like Spamassassin learn, I 
prefer an "on error" approach, which is more reactive and doesn't 
require initial learns).


Move this design on rspamd is not easy. I think rspamd is not a magic 
wand to easily replace Amavis


I hope Amavis could still be maintained. DSPAM is already gone. If also 
Amavis dies, Spamassassin will follow...


Regards
Marco

Looks like it was long ago. rspamd can now also be installed as a
filter and it works "out of the box".
And one more impotent advantage of rspamd: it gives you access to
global SPAM databases like fuzzy and so on. Just take a look at
default config files. It improves spam detection of freshly installed
system.


The problem is that if you've built an entire system/cluster, UI etc. 
etc. based on Amavis - it's not really plug-n-play to just change to 
rspamd.


Also rspamd replaces spamassassin, so you are looking at a change in 
spamfiltering technology/ruleset/config as well.

Yes, it has improved a lot during the last year (or at least since I
last tried installing it).

rspamd is designed with mutliple servers in mind (shared databases for
everything, lots of fallback options in case one server goes down etc.)

Yes, DKIM-related, see my original message. From what I can tell the
available patch does not fix everything. Because of this issue I have
disabled amavisd-new's DKIM-features locally and use OpenDKIM.


Which is a perfectly fine solution, since it's not really an Amavis-job 
to handle DKIM.
