McGrail > Priority: Major > Labels: GSoC2019 > > As discussed in 2015 at > [https://bz.apache.org/SpamAssassin/show_bug.cgi?id=7287,] this idea was > ideal for GSOC but there was a problem with a deadline missed. > > Apache SpamAssassin is a mail filter to identify spam. It is an intelligent > email filter which uses a diverse range of tests to identify unsolicited bulk > email, more commonly known as Spam. These tests are applied to email headers > and content to classify email using advanced statistical methods. > In addition, SpamAssassin has a modular architecture that allows other > technologies to be quickly wielded against spam and is designed for easy > integration into virtually any email system. > It is primarily written in Perl with a few bits in C and shell scripts for > system integration. > The compendium at > https://raptor.pccc.com/raptor.cgim?template=email_spam_compendium is helpful > to understand some of the concepts with SpamAssassin > It will be helpful for a student in this project to understand SMTP but a > willingness to learn and setup your own mail server on a Linux Distribution > with SpamAssassin for a personal test domain will be very desired with > assistance provided to get the basic framework for a sandbox for learning. > As email becomes more commodotized by major providers, knowledge of email > systems and their security is dwindling. This opportunity can provide > real-world experience with an email security product that is employed by > countless commercial systems in the world. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@community.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@community.apache.org
