Agreed. 1879851 is after I submitted the fix but doesn;t include the fix. I will have to check again after the next rule publishing. Sorry for the false alarm. -- Kevin A.

Pedro David Marco wrote: Is there any way to know whether a Sendgrid IP is shared or dedicated? Use the FCrDNS data and one or another of the X-Spam-Relays metaheaders. It should be possible to quickly refine these to "good enough", if they're not already (watch for word wrap): header SENDGRID_SHARED_1 X-Spam-Relays-Untrusted =~ /^\[[^\]]+ rdns=[\w\d.]+\.shared\.sendgrid\.net / header SENDGRID_SHARED_2 X-Spam-Relays-Untrusted =~ /^\[[^\]]+ rdns=[\w\d.]+.outbound-mail.sendgrid.net / I suspect the second matches a somewhat different slice of their services than you're asking about, but I can't say I can really tell the difference from the outside. -kgd

* Kevin A. McGrail: > We're getting some positive attention from the verbiage change. Pluralis Majestatis, is it? ;-) What you call "the nice post" follows the overall theme of the US cultural imperialism you pushed in this thread. I see no mention in the purely US-centric article that (a) people across the world have quite different concepts of the connection between colours and racially charged language, (b) changing a few terms in lieu of making meaningful changes in how people treat each other will probably achieve nothing, and so forth. SpamAssassin is not a US-only venture. While you are patting yourself on the back, hoping to perhaps gain a few contributors (which you are patronising along the way, if you have not noticed), I think that you will lose others who find your approach as arrogant and outright silly as I do. It may be a good time to check on Rspamd again, although I find the team-of-one approach unnerving. I can't stand how many American right-wingers behave, especially Exhibit A in the White House, but this is an issue where left-wing zeal causes its own screw-ups. Having followed US politics since the Ford administration, I am sad how things have turned out. We have a lot of problems of our own here, but I am very glad that I don't have to live in the US. -Ralph

Sad thing, having a system where the average person rules, one can only conclude that this human race is going to fail inevitably. The only people who really understood that the only way the persevere on the long run, is to live in harmony in this world (keep ecological balance).

RE: Thanks to Guardian Digital & LinuxSecurity for the nice post about SpamAssassin's upcoming change
You are a racist when you are not treating people equal on the basis of the skin colour (or check definition in dictionary). Therefore anyone associating people of darker colour with blacklist and lighter colour with whitelist and associate this with in-equal treatment, is a racist. No one can complain about people trying to change things for the better. But lets be real, nothing you do here will make a difference. And I only fear that you feel so good about yourself, and then ignorantly continue upholding the very system that perpetuates race inequality. Yes yes that will happen, you will not think about slavery or inequality when you buy your next pair of shoes or apply for a loan at a bank. I do hope the people that are advocating this blacklist/whitelist removal so strongly, that they: Don't buy shoes manufactured under slave like conditions. Don't buy phones manufactured under slave like conditions. Don't do business with companies that have executive teams that do not resemble the diversity of the local population. Don't buy products from companies with billionaires (look at your US billionaires list, does not really resemble the diversity in your country) Don't watch any movies produced in hollywood Don't put your kids in all white schools PS. It is my opinion really pathetic to reference a news article where you are mentioned. This type of change should come from the heart, regardless what others are doing and saying. Now you look like some youtuber begging for acknowledgement asking for likes. To me you are more behaving like someone that follows the crowd without thinking, and history has shown that tends to be very dangerous. -Original Message- To: users@spamassassin.apache.org Subject: Re: Thanks to Guardian Digital & LinuxSecurity for the nice post about SpamAssassin's upcoming change So, This is the heading of the article: Apache SpamAssassin Leads A Growing List of Open-Source Projects Taking Steps to Correct Instances of Racism and White Privilege Using the word "blacklist" is racism.

We're no longer angry, we're "not excited," how generous. The spamassassin leadership team are political hacks. Eric On 7/15/2020 5:24 PM, Kevin A.
