Happy New Year from SpamAssassin

[Development] Posted Jan 1, 2010 16:38 UTC (Fri) by corbet

Those of you using SpamAssassin to filter your mail may want to watch things a bit more closely than usual; it seems that current versions still include the rule known as FH_DATE_PAST_20XX, which adds 2-3 points to any message with a 2010 date in the headers. Surprisingly enough, such dates have suddenly become common, with the result that SpamAssassin may be generating more false positives than usual. The fix is to add:

score FH_DATE_PAST_20XX 0.0

to the local.cf file.
