Qmailadmin 1.2.11 updated

I just updated Qmailadmin 1.2.11 for Etch amd64/i386 to include some changes :

  • instead of a checkbox to enable/disable spam filtering on pop accounts, there is now a list to chose what to do (no filtering, marking spams, deleting spams, learn spam, learn ham). This allow anyone to easily train your bayesian filters.
  • Spamassassin is now recommanded and will replace bogofilter in a near future
  • Clamassassin replaces clamfilter.pl due to performance issues. Please DO update the /etc/procmailrc-* files during the upgrade to ensure virus are scanned.

ClamAV removed from Dotdeb

FYI, ClamAV has been removed from Dotdeb, since it is more actively maintained on Debian Volatile.

Volatile is now part of the Debian project and will be activated by default on Debian Lenny. Its goal is to provide up-to-date packages of some specific pieces of software (ClamAV, Spamassassin for example). Please use it instead of Dotdeb for your mail-filtering packages.
