Re: where'd SendmailID.pm go?

it was a sandbox plugin that didn't work, hence, now gone.

bingo.

i always build SA from src w/,

	cd ${SA_SRC}
	perl Makefile.PL ...
	cd spamc
	perl version.h.pl
	./configure --enable-ssl ...
	make

and note afterwards,

	cd ${SA_SRC}
	ls -1 rules/*.pm
		rules/SIQ.pm
		rules/sandbox-felicity.pm
		rules/sandbox-hstern.pm

i did *not* realize that mkrules is the 'culprit', but i *do* see it
in Makefile.PL.

(need to look more closely at what's going on so as not to fubar my setup ... )

thanks!

Good to know.

Perhaps I *should* know.  Can't find that stated/clarified anywhere in
the src tree.  I've looked repeatedly.  If it's supposed to be
obvious, i'm clueless.

My -- incorrect -- presumption has been, since its DISTRIBUTED *with*
SA, it's  change-managed along with it.

Could that be stated clearly somewhere?  Perhaps a README.RULES in the
src tree top?

It'll be in the svn log info for the rulesrc (aka repo/spamassassin/rules)
directory.  You wouldn't see those changes in the Changes file, for instance,
since rulesrc is independent of the SA distribution.

plugins have never been in the rules dir.  they're either in a sandbox or in
the lib/Mail/SpamAssassin/Plugins dir.

fair enuf.

where are such removals documented?  my point being simply: it *was*
in the src tree, suddenly it isn't.  even if well-justified, shouln't
that action be *mentioned* in Changelog?

also, when did plugins move (back?) to rulesrc/sandbox/... as opposed
to rules/...?
