Anti-Spam SMTP Proxy Server News

latest production version : assp 2.5.3 build 16294
current fix list : assp 2.5.3 build 16302:

• if the connection to a peer used SSL/TLS and
• a mail was larger than the maximum SSL-send-buffer-size
• and 8BITMIME was enabled and used with any charset
• or the mail was malformed encoded in any part
• or a regex match contained UTF8 multibyte characters and the result was added to the X-ASSP headers

• and also some other rare cases
  the IO-byte-count provided by IO::Socket::SSL and the IO-buffer-content recalculation done by assp was inconstent.
  This may have caused malformed 8BITMIME mails and destroyed attachments.

• after an upgrade of ASSP to the latest version without upgrading the perl modlues to the recommended version
  for example Net::DNS::Question::name is missing and causes an exception
  ASSP is changed to use Net::DNS::Question::qname, which is also available in older versions of this module!
  HOW EVER, it is strongly recommended to keep ALL used perl modules at least at the recommended version level
