Re: ... is Spambayes still supported?

Hi,

there have not been releases since some time and if you have a look at =

the svn then you can see that there has not been any development at all =

for some years now:
https://sourceforge.net/p/spambayes/code/HEAD/tree/trunk/ (last changes =

2011).

I'm not sure if this is anything official, or not, but there are some =

github repositories where some development is taking place:
https://github.com/smontanaro/spambayes (2015) -> at least the username =

resembles the svn username on sourceforge a bit.
There are some forks, too, that see some code changes and discussion.
(Probably this can be seen as hint for a new release: =

https://github.com/smontanaro/spambayes/commit/71a53502184bbdaf4ce7308e28b8=
83b8a3353e71 =

)

I don't know anything about the outlook plugin, that seems to produce =

issues from time to time. But with the main part of spambayes being =

python software, it can run under any system that has a python =

interpreter. Also imap and pop3 are pretty old protocols and as long as =

they are used for mail transfer and the way mail is encoded, does not =

change, spambayes will still do its job even without any new releases.

Just my 2cents.
