Version 2.5.0

If a spam message has a local user in its "From:"
(e.g.: "From: postmaster"), then the local user on the machine running
ASK receives the confirmation message.

Simple, suggested fix: send only confirmation requests to addresses
with an "@" inside.


I will file this bug in SF's bug tracker, unless someone tells me not
to do so.
