Much as it pains me to say it, if the maia web interface is not updated to work with current software versions, I'll have to end this chapter, It's been a good run. We rolled out maia, with a support contract, to 6000 users at Toyota back in the early 2000s, and it beat all the available commercial solutions. Our east coast plant had spent nearly half a million dollars on a well known commercial solution, but in the end, they asked us to let them route their incoming mail through our maia system instead. It performed flawlessly. I'm gratified to see that all the perl code from 2005 works perfectly today, with the latest OS releases. The php component turned out to be the achilles heel. I've reached out to Robert LeBlanc and haven't heard back, so it doesn't look good at this point. I suppose the next best thing would be to have spamassassin, and possibly amavis, just tag suspected spam, deliver it and let my MUA sort it out. That simplifies things by eliminating the need for a web interface, and letting the end user mail program handle the details. In the meantime I'll be on the lookout for any maia alternatives that I can recommend to others.
