One should never let practicality get in the way of political correctness,
right?

Seriously.. you have more important issues...
While thet change in names will not fix any societal issue, for a
product like SpamAssassin that relies heavily on plugins (including some
plugins that may have been developped locally, long time ago, by someone
who is not working there anymore) and that is
also embeded (like in amavis) these sort of changes may break a lot of
implementations, to the point that people will be reluctant to upgrade.
And if SA is not upgraded, the user base will shrink and it may lead to
the death of SA.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
If you are running trunk, we are working on changing terms like
whitelist to welcomelist and blacklist to blocklist.

The first test of this work is done with allowlist_to replacing
whitelist_to
Committed revision 1879456.
If you are using trunk, there may be disruption since routines,
plugins and rule changes will all interweave.
*IF YOU ARE RUNNING TRUNK: I recommend you subscribe to the

mailing list to stay abreast of the changes.*

Please let me know if you have any questions!
