Hello all, I've been using SA for some months now with great success. Its rule scheme is very efficient and straight-forward when you learn some regexp.
But, as an end-user (I sys-admin some thousands of mail accounts), I think that the rules could be forked from SA, so community could treat SA as a spam-scanning engine and the rules would be the spam database, like an anti-virus package. This would allow a more often update of the rules without the need to upgrade SA. I understand that some rules depends on features/functions inside SA, but such a proposed scheme would allow a more often update of the rules for each (?) new spam. So, SA Version N - Rules N.1 released on 01/01/2004 - Rules N.2 released on 22/01/2004 - Rules N.3 released ... SA version N+1 - Rules N+1.1 released on 12/05/2004 - Rules N+1.2 released on 02/06/2004 - Rules N+1.3 released ... (...) So, Rules N+1.X won't work on SA version < N+1. The main purpose is to have a more often rules update without the need to dig on mailling lists or the whole web for a rule set for a specific new spam. Just a brainstorm, hope to hear what you think. And sorry if this has been discussed before.
