SpamAssassin 18th anniversary article

Hi all,

LinuxSecurity just posted an article on the history of SpamAssassin and 
its recent 18th anniversary, some of the new features coming in v4, and 
speaks with some of the lead developers.

We'd love to know what you think.

Thanks,
Dave

Interesting. I started using SpamAssassin about 3 years ago as a backend to
Amavis for our forwarding mail servers and for the first 18 months it was
just a black box to me; but as I have learned more I have been able to make
it (even) better by including KAM.cf and non-KAM.cf, GeoIP2 and my own
bespoke rules. And of course the release of v3.4.3 helped.

My thanks and congratulations to all who have been or still are involved in
the project - your child has really grown up!
