https://github.com/avleen/vexim Finally, after *years* of waiting, promises made and broken (by me, I'm sorry!), I'm finally in a position where I can focus heavily on vexim. I actually have *time* to do this now :-) The new version is being coded as we speak. I'm committing heavily to git as fast and often as I can. I'm hoping to get it the basic features done in the next 2 days. Some features which *probably* will get dropped for now: 1. Header-based blocking. We'll get it back if there is any interest (even just one person saying "I want that!"). 2. The half-hearted support I coded in for non-spamassassin spam filtering. It didn't work. We'll stick with SA support for now, and later separate it such that we can write plugins for others 3. The non-English language support will not be there in the very first stable new version I think. But I'll be working closely with people to get translations in place. What are the goals of the new version? A complete re-write, to enable easier future development. Currently making even small changed to Vexim is a huge pain in the backside. To enable others to contribute changes more easily. To take the changes that others have make over the last 7 years and make sure they are all integrated. I think that's it. The other stuff is pretty basic functionality. If you join #vexim on Freenode, I'm in there too. If anyone wants to make suggestions, throw code in, -- Avleen Vig Systems Administrator Personal: www.silverwraith.com
