SpamAssassin 2010 Bug

Posted by Soulskill on Friday January 1, 2010 @01:10PM from the who-could-have-known-when-2010-would-happen dept.

SEWilco writes "You might want to check your spam folder, as SpamAssassin has a rule which is tending to mark email sent in 2010 as spam. There is some discussion in a bug report. The SpamAssassin Wiki FH_DATE_PAST_20XX page doesn't have discussion, but it was updated today with a different date rule."

"Idiots?"
You might have a point if the ONLY step began with "first". But here you see a bunch of people answered you.. and yes, ALL of them began with editing the "whatever" file.
You know... paid support for SpamAssassin IS available.
I suppose it could even work for someone who doesn't have TIME to "edit the /etc/spamassassin.conf file".
Even during the holidays there are folks like you who have the audacity to demand FREE free support... while pre-emptively demeaning those who would provide it. Unbelievable.
