I'm +1 but I was curious about the DCC tests. Should we worry they don't
seem to work?

3.2.4 is a major bug-fix release, with a few minor new features. Summary
of
changes:
- bug 5599: allow load distribution of SA nameserver queries across all
nameservers listed in resolv.conf, using 'dns_options rotate'. thanks to
Pawel Sasin <hannibal /at/ wp-sa.pl>
- bug 5673: 'ALL' header was including spurious extra spaces between
header names and values. fix
- bug 5594: several major sa-compile fixes. major increase in overall
speed; cache results between runs to further increase speed; and fix a
danger of massive memory usage
- bug 5556: fix a variety of sa-compile portability issues, and support
for 5.6.x perls
- bug 5514: make 'score set for a non-existent rule' a debug message,
instead of a lint warning, since it's a very frequent FAQ
- bug 5493: sa-compile fails to correctly deal with escaped backslashes.
fix
- bug 5672: remove DNS_FROM_SECURITYSAGE (DNSBL lookups against
securitysage.com) due to unreliability
- bug 5476: update Bonded Sender (now Sender Score Certified) rules, and
add a rule for their strictly-confirmed-opt-in-required zone
- bug 5538: remove FORGED_MUA_AOL_FROM and FORGED_AOL_TAGS entirely;
they're obsolete, given the current capabilities of AOL mail user agents
- bug 5632: remove all completewhois.com DNSBL lookups, site seems to have
disappeared without warning
- bug 5715: allow for more than one sa-update MIRRORED.BY file host in
DNS, for redundancy
- bug 5662: DKIM changes: recognize author signature and multiple
signatures for whitelisting (with Mail::DKIM 0.29); disable useless
"check_dkim_signsome"; new eval rules "check_dkim_valid_author_sig" and
"check_dkim_valid" (an alias for a "check_dkim_verified" misnomer); new
tags _DKIMIDENTITY_ and _DKIMDOMAIN_; updated terminology; verification
speedup with Mail::DKIM 0.30 (or its pre-releases)
- bug 5696: sa-compile: cut regexp base strings at Unicode high
codepoints, to avoid corruption of patterns containing UTF-8
- bug 5637: bayes_file_mode is handled incorrectly when creating
bayes.mutex, resulting in incorrect permissions on that file; fix by
Mihaly Barasz
- bug 5612: DB_File version 4.2.x has a bug that loops infinitely if files
named '__db.{filename}' are present; work around. thanks to J. Nick
Koston for the report and fix
- bug 5606: too-early init_learner() call causes root's user prefs file to
be read when spamd is started; this is inappropriate. fix
- bug 4179: if allow_user_rules is 1, user rules are not unique to each
user; one user's user rules can appear in later scans for other users that
are run using the same spamd process. fix
- bug 5680: ALL_TRUSTED can fire if a trusted MSA or webmail system
receives the message from an untrusted X-Originating-IP: header. fix
- bug 5626: in the 'spamassassin' script, install a signal handler for
SIGHUP, SIGINT, SIGTERM and SIGPIPE to ensure that temporary files are
removed
- bug 5557: some temporary files are left not cleaned up on Windows; fix
- bug 5661: speed up Bayes SQL queries by allowing the use of indexes when
expiring
- bug 5611: support 'spamd --nouser-config -u username', which setuids to
'username' but does not read user_prefs files from anywhere
- bug 5665: spamd may fail to notice that a child has completed exiting,
and keeps in the child list in state 'K', eventually filling up the child
list with 'ghost' children. fix
- bug 5735: spamc should allow retry_sleep 0
- bug 5728: spamd: require -u with --sql-config or --ldap-config
- bug 5682: remove FH_HOST_ALMOST_IP, FH_HOST_EQ_D_D_D_D, due to false
positives and redundancy with RDNS_DYNAMIC; remove FH_HOST_EQ_D_D_D_DB due
to no hits
- bug 5681: look up IP addresses found in 'X-Yahoo-Post-IP' and
'X-SenderIP' headers, too, thanks to Martin Blapp
- Bug 5589: Refined async events handling and DNS lookup completions
- bug 5586: RDNS_NONE has false positives if the MTA doesn't put the
hostname in the Received header, like Communigate Pro. add an exception
for this
- bug 5748: fix locale problem with use of external sort in sa-compile
