Hello,
I'm sorry if my question is not in the right place here, but I have
searched on the net, without finding any answer....
So, here is my question : is it normal that I see not update of the
rules since 2008 January 20th ? It used to be updated every week ....
and I get a lot of spam with viagra ou medecine or MedHelp in the
subject....
I can only speak to the official channel, not openprotect, however,
much of this will likely apply there too.
Sa-updates are very sporadic, and the latest sa-update for 3.2.x at
this time is dated January 14th, 2008. sa-updates aren't scheduled nor
automatic, so expecting them weekly will result in disappointment.
Sometimes they happen multiple times in one day, sometimes not for
months at a time.
sa-update's get made when several things happen all together: a
developer sees a need (i.e.: a new kind of spam), has time to make a
new rule, and that tests out very well.
Right now, I suspect most of the development effort is being consumed
trying to get 3.3.0 out the door.
If you want to see the history of sa-updates for the official channel,
you can take a look at the SVN tags:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/spamassassin/tags/
If you look at the starting part of a tag, ie:
sa-update_3.2_20080114144817, this will tell you it's a sa-update for
version 3.2. The start of the numbers is actually a date stamp in
YYYYMMDD format, so this one was published in 2008, January, 14th.
(The rest is likely a GMT timestamp, suggesting it was published at
14:48:17, but I've never bothered to check if that's true..)
Thank you for your answers. I will try to re-build my MTA, because I
think, there is something wrong since updates. I will follow all your
advices.
And I will wait for the 3.3.0 version of SA !
