New release of pythonfilter at the usual place: http://www.dragonsdawn.net/~gordon/courier-pythonfilter/
The most significant feature of this release is the addition of a filter which can append signatures to messages received by Courier. Because signature policy will be site specific, I expect that most users will use this filter to create one that meets their needs. Customization should be fairly simple where it is required. The filter will check messages for an authenticated sender, and if found, will append a signature based on the domain of the sender. The original message will be wrapped in a MIME part, and the signature will be added as a multipart/mixed MIME attachment. The advantage of this approach is that it preserves the original message. Messages which are MIME or PGP encrypted can still be signed, which isn't true of filters which inject a signature into MIME parts. Messages which are signed should also remain valid, though I expect that most mail clients won't (and shouldn't) indicate that the entire message has a valid signature. In total, the filter is 74 lines of code, making it vastly smaller than other filters, and a better base from which to make a filter that meets a site's needs. This work was completed several months ago under contract, and is now included with the pythonfilter distribution. Other notable changes include: * The license for pythonfilter is now GPL 3. * Messages which are refused by any pythonfilter module are logged, including information about which module refused the message, and the sender and recipient addresses * A much improved SpamAssassin module that can modify messages. This makes it much easier to use Courier and pythonfilter as a mail gateway. * Many small improvements and bug fixes. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sponsored by: SourceForge.net Community Choice Awards: VOTE NOW!
