There was an announcement about this on the Spamassassin mailing list. He's moving the ruleset to a Verizon IP address and will be phasing out the Comast server. He just wants to make you aware of the change and to reconfigure your RDJ to reflect the new server. My understanding is that he's dropping the domain name, so he's warning that someone else may pick the domain name up and could potentially release rulesets that specifically allow spam through. He also states that he has not updated the antidrug.cf ruleset in over a year and to stop using it altogether.This popped up one one of the servers I maintain:***WARNING***: spamassassin --lint failed. Rolling configuration files back, not restarting SpamAssassin.

First, I was not aware RulesDujour was for Spamassassin 2.64 and below. My version is 3.1.7 so it is not a big deal. What is surprising is that it identified the IP as comcast. This particular computer is not only NOT on comcast but it is the only one that I maintain that is on a static IP!
