Mailing Lists
We generally discuss SpamAssassin and its development via the following mailing lists.
SpamAssassin-Users
A general user list.
Note: before you submit a question to the mailing list, please thoroughly read the FrequentlyAskedQuestions list and other info on the FrontPage, as your question is likely already answered there. If you've looked carefully but still can't find your answer, then go ahead and post – but be sure to note
- how you're invoking SpamAssassin (options are in UsingSpamAssassin),
- what version of SpamAssassin you're using, and
- your platform.
Please don't ask questions about versions older than 2.63 and 3.0, as you don't want to use an old version for the same reason you wouldn't use an out-of-date anti-virus scanner.
