noahm<p>If you're using <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/spamassassin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>spamassassin</span></a> on <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/debian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>debian</span></a>, please consider testing the 4.0.2-rc1 packages. They're currently in experimental for unstable and built for bookworm in the bookworm-backports suite in my personal repo on people.debian.org. <a href="https://people.debian.org/~noahm/repo/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">people.debian.org/~noahm/repo/</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p>My plan is to update bookworm and trixie point releases to 4.0.2 once it's releases, so all the testing I can get is helpful. Please report any issues via the BTS or directly to me directly.</p>

🆘Bill Cole 🇺🇦<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@jwz" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>jwz</span></a></span> The stats we collect for the <a href="https://toad.social/tags/SpamAssassin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SpamAssassin</span></a> project (mass-scan results from participating sites) have long shown that spammers are more consistent at making SPF, DKIM, and DMARC correct than are legitimate senders. DMARC in particular has no discernible benefit for most senders, so it is a useless signal. </p><p>Rejecting mail based solely on authentication failures of those deeply flawed authentication methods does more harm than good.</p>
