Recommended update for spamassassin
SUSE Recommended Update: Recommended update for spamassassin
This update provides spamassassin 3.3.1 with many
improvements and fixes:
* IPv6 support was substantially improved
* many improvements to the DKIM plugin (understands
author domain signatures, supports multiple signatures,
ADSP support with overrides)
* added a configuration option 'time_limit', defaulting
to 300 seconds or whatever the caller (like spamd)
provides; attempting to gracefully terminate the checking
when a time limit is reached, reporting the score and test
hits that were collected so far, along with an added hit on
a rule TIME_LIMIT_EXCEEDED;
* configurable network mask length for the AWL plugin
* added IPv6 support for trusted_networks,
internal_networks, msa_networks, whitelist_from_rcvd, and
other stuff that uses NetSet and the Received header field
parser, using NetAddr::IP;
* allowed usage of a remote dccifd host through an INET
or INET6 socket;
* added IPv6 support to AWL plugin and its utility
modules; a network mask length is now configurable and
defaults to /48, which controls what data is stored in an
AWL database;
* IP_PRIVATE now includes ipv6 variants of private
address space as well as the ipv6-mapped ipv4 addresses.
* NetSet now understands that ::ffff:192.168.1.2 and
192.168.1.2 are the same address;
* IPv6 addresses are now properly read from Received
header fields;
* when reading Received header fields, the "IPv6:"
prefix is stripped from IPv6 addresses, and "::ffff:" is
removed from IPv6-mapped IPv4 addresses (so strings can
match them as simply IPv4 addresses);
* ::1/128 is always included in the
trusted_networks/internal_networks set similar to
127.0.0.0/8;
