MailScanner: August 2006 Archives

Like so many other bloggers it looks like I'm going to be going down the interview route a bit as well.... In my case I'd like to talk to people whose work fits in with my own particular set of interests, so the first person I've asked to give an interview is Julian Field, who is the developer of MailScanner I won't be podcasting this particular interview, as it will be conducted via email and I still haven't quite got my mic working on Ubuntu :) So, if anyone has any questions that they'd like to ask Julian please let me know via the comments

Julian has just released the August version of MailScanner and, as usual, has made a great bit of software even better. One of the things that has always been awkward to track were changes in the config ie. our custom changes vs. Julian's default settings. You can now see this easily by running: MailScanner --changed which will output a table of values that have been changed. For example: Table of Changed Values: Option Name Default Current Value =============================================================================== allowpasswordprotectedarchives no yes alwaysincludespamassassinreport no yes alwayslookeduplast no FUNCTION:MailWatchLogging Other changes and full details are documented in the change log.
