The issue is with the mirror at 95.216.24.32 - it's returning a 404 
for the file.  If you go to


http://95.216.24.32/updates/MIRRORED.BY 



you get a not found.


Yes, because that webserver uses name-based virtual hosts: you can't 
just use the IP in the URL, you need to make sure you send the proper 
hostname. You also need to follow HTTP redirects, because the http URL 
redirects to a https URL. Like this:


$ curl -sOL -H 'Host: spamassassin.apache.org' 
http://95.216.24.32/updates/MIRRORED.BY

$ ls -l MIRRORED.BY
-rw-r--r--  1 bill  staff  1400 Sep 18 00:01 MIRRORED.BY
$ head MIRRORED.BY
#HOW TO UPDATE
#
# SOURCE: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/spamassassin/site/updates/
#
# 'svn checkout' the repo, update this file, and commit it
#
# A svnpubsub update on spamassassin.apache.org will instantly pull
# from SVN after the commit.
#
# A cron'd update on sa-vm1.apache.org will also automatically pull


I copied the MIRRORED.BY file from the 3.004001 directory then re-ran 
sa-update.  It pulled down rules and I'm in business.


Kevin, thanks for the patch.  It works.  Sorry for the extra noise and 
perhaps we need to do something about that broken mirror?


The mirror doesn't look broken from here.

SpamAssassin 3.4.2. - err.h requirement

[James Hsieh]

So this isn't a complaint.  I think the SA team has done a great job getting 
this release out and yes, it works fine for me under Linux.

However, any creative ways for getting around the fact that err.h is now part 
of spamc/getopt.c?  This breaks older OSes (which admittedly I probably 
shouldn't care about or use anymore) such as Solaris 10.  For a double dot 
release, this seems a bit unfortunate though I agree, really need to get this 
system on to something more modern.

Good to know.  Did the Makefile.PL gracefully tell you that your
Makemaker was too old?

I ran into one gotcha on (ancient) Debian 5; the version of
ExtUtils::MakeMaker was too old.  Installing from CPAN did the trick.  I'd
imagine something similar might happen on ancient Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.

Recommend you might take a look.  You can install the srpm and then in
/usr/src/RedHat you get various files like tar files and patches with a
spec file that says how to build it.  Some are complex, some are easy. 
Then you rpmbuild to make an RPM that you can install.

If you can do a batch file, you can likely use an rpm spec file.

Possibly if I knew what I was doing with src rpms, that would be the case. ;-)

I'd be pretty shocked if you have to do very much to that src rpm for
3.4.1 to get 3.4.2 working.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Apache SpamAssassin 3.4.2 available

[Amir Caspi]

Is there anyone so kind as to perhaps make an RPM for CentOS 5?  There are 
still more than a few dinosaurs running that OS that can't upgrade but would 
love to have SA.

I could probably build it from the src rpm but I'm not an expert...

Kevin Fenzi has a repo with 3.4.1 for CentOS 5 and 6, but I don't know if he 
plans to update it with 3.4.2...

Cheers.

I'll rephrase that as: without much impact on existing rules.

You can sometimes work around it with rawbody rules.

I don't know why body rules work that way. If the normalized body were
stored as single-line paragraphs separated by newlines (perhaps broken
into large blocks), it would make make it possible to write more
reliable body rules without changing the behaviour of existing rules.

Yes you are right... the question is how to "regex" along different 
paragraphs...

If that actually occurred in the body it would be normalized to  

apache apache apache

If you mean 

apache

apache

apache

then my understanding is that a body rule would run independently on
each instance of 'apache', not on  'apache\napache\napache\n'.

Sure, thanks Antony...
I want i to detect multiple consecutive strings separated by a carriage return, 
like this:


apache
apache
apache
apache



something like:
body     __REPEATED_APACHES     /^apache$/
tflags    __REPEATED_APACHES     multiplemetaREPEATED_APACHES      
__REPEATED_APACHES > 3
will do the job BUT is not valid because it will trigger as well in a body like 
this:



apache
apache
Groucho
apache
apache


where apaches are not consecutive...

Give us a bit more of a clue what you are trying / hoping to do?

In what way do you want to identify different paragraphs in an email, and how 
should the rules be applied differently?
