Spamassassin 2010 bug??

[punto]

There is an issue with SPAMASSASSIN marking all emails as SPAM once 2010 begins.

I noticed I am running spamassassin-3.2.5-1.el5.rf

Is this something we need to be wary of?

Thanks

Check the header of your emails if this rule appears there on non spam emails. I dont have any problems with that on my servers.

Hi Till,

Thanks for the reply. Yes this rule is in the headers, this from an email...

3.4 FH_DATE_PAST_20XX The date is grossly in the future.

And a quick test showed a known address being marked as SPAM. Which .cf file do I need to modify? I see there are two

/home/admispconfig/ispconfig/tools/spamassassin/etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf and

/etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf

Although the first one has no expressions specified.

Thanks
Matt

Run this command as root:

/home/admispconfig/ispconfig/tools/spamassassin/usr/bin/sa-update

Most likely the spamassassin devs have released a rule update already. If this does not help, edit the file /home/admispconfig/ispconfig/tools/spamassassin/etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf

mhm whats wrong, is it necessary to have the last update? My stand is the pre last update for ispconfig 2.0

You need to install LWP::UserAgent. Which distribution do you use?

Hi,

this is a debian etch

run:

apt-get install libwww-perl

ok thank you, the install works fine but now comes the next problem

see here

PHP Code:

is something with the install wrong so it looks like the archive is missing.
