Re: Lint failing
Alan, I have the serious impression that you are still running CentOS 6 as spamassassin 3.3.1 is the default spamassassin version of CentOS 6. Centos 6 was released back in 2011 and full upgrades stopped on 2017-05-10 (maintanance releases until november 2020). Are you still running CentOS 6? I am not going to spend any second helping you if you run a pre-dinosour version of both the OS and spamassassin.

There are no major rule updates pending so it's a non impacting issue. However, now you know why the KAM ruleset exists because the process for stock rule publishing is too slow. Recommend you ignore the issue until Monday and if it doesn't resolve then we'll look at it again and try and figure out why a good rule set is not being published.

Re: Constructive solution to the blacklist thread
Dear everybody, Could we please "cut the crap" and stop with all the polictics. SpamAssassin is a fantastic piece of software in reducing the amount of spam which gets into our inboxes. I do thank Kevin and everybody contributing for their past, present and future work. I do not like the proposed change, because of greylisting. What is between a welcomelist and a blocklist? I would have liked it much more if the colors of a traffic light were chosen (greenlist, amberlist, redlist). That also would create posibilities like "very dark amber" (= almost red) For instance every mail from a .icu domain would be amber listed with me Met vriendelijke groet, Best regards, Thom van der Boon E-Mail: t...@vdb.nl Van: "Eric Broch" Aan: "SA Mailing list" Verzonden: Zaterdag 25 juli 2020 14:03:43 Onderwerp: Re: Constructive solution to the blacklist thread On 7/24/2020 6:00 PM, Noel Butler wrote: On 25/07/2020 04:03, Kevin A.

There are 192 _other_ countries in the world, the USA is united states of america, not united states of world - get used to pushbacks from those who are sick of the USA pushing their views and values on to others because of their own failings, especially when you cant even protect your own kids from mass murder at hands of gun nuts, when you can, THEN you can come here and beat your chest about how great a nation you are. BQ_END Practically, the U.S., its politicians and citizens, have embraced every plank of the Communist Manifesto. I cannot belief how fast the delusion has set in here. This is no longer a Constitutional Republic but has been taken over by Marxists and their ideology, Marxism is not benign but malignant. This is why the whole world feels pressure from the U.S. if not by open warfare by sanctions, or revolutionaries released on your streets. Your politicians and media are bought off and controlled by the CIA. The delusion is so complete that as we see with the S.A. project no shots will be fired. In soviet fashion the agenda is perpetrated.
Re: IMPORTANT NOTICE: Rules referencing WHITELIST or BLACKLIST in process of being Renamed
Dear Kevin, I maintain a rule set specificly targeted at the Dutch language: [ https://dutchspamassassinrules.nl/DSR/DSR.cf | https://dutchspamassassinrules.nl/DSR/DSR.cf ] One example is that our IRS ("Belastingdienst") is whitelisted by the following rule: whitelist_from_spf *@belastingdienst.nl Our IRS ("Belastingdienst") uses DKIM, SPF and DMARC, so fake messages are extremely easy to detect. This list (DSR) is used by a number of mailservers in the Netherlands. So the changes that were made. will impact all servers that use the DSR Met vriendelijke groet, Best regards, Thom van der Boon E-Mail: t...@vdb.nl Van: "Kevin A.
