Folks, 

The latest version (2.61) of razor-agents is now available for
download from http://razor.sourceforge.net/

The highlight of the release is introduction of a new signature
scheme, Whiplash, based on canonical domain names present in the
message body of spam messages. Whiplash has been in use in the
Razor2/SpamNet backend and available to SpamNet users for a
while now, and this release makes it available to Razor2 users.

Here's the direct link to the download:

Here's the changelog: 

   * Introduced the Whiplash signature scheme. Whiplash
     signatures are based on canonical domain names present
     in URLs embedded in spam messages. A Whiplash signature
     is also a function of the length of the spam message.
     It's important to note that not all whiplashes are used
     as classifiers. The Whiplash engine is augmented by
     sophisticated logic on the Razor2 backend to select the
     Whiplashes that are used to filter spam.

   * Fixed a bug in MIME parser whereby some broken MIME
     mails were invisible to the system. [Bug #788723]

   * We override the "use_engines" parameter in the config
     file because this version supports different engines
     but leaves the config file untouched. [Bug #984374]

   * Engine 1 support completely removed. Engine 1 was a
     signature scheme compatible with the old razor v1
     signatures, which is no longer supported on the
     backend. [Bug #975490]

cheers,
vipul
