The UPGRADE file goes into this to some extent. It doesn't mention MIMEDefang by name, but the second paragraph points out that SA's API has changed, and that if you use a third-party program to call it, you'll need to upgrade to a version that supports the new API. (Developers: It might be worth mentioning the minimum 3.0-compatible versions for MD, Amavis, and other popular things-that-call-SA.) Does anyone know of any problems running SA 3.0 from MD 2.37? Support for SA 3.0 was added in MD 2.42, so you'll need to upgrade at least to that version (though of course upgrading to the latest and greatest is recommended!) -- Kelson Vibber SpeedGate Communications www.speed.net

How are developers supposed to know what popular versions of software support/use SpamAssassin and what the minimum supported version is? Besides, who gets to decide what the definition of popular is? Michael
