AFAIK, it's up-to-date. I have yet to get Pyzor working reliably enough to put it on my server. The call works on my Windows XP test machine, but it randomly hangs (which would be bad for a mail server). I suspect it'd require some work on the query mechanism to use an SA-like query or something. > There are some other plugins that i would also like to > implement (for example iXhash and OCR Plugin or OCR scanner > and image validator SA-plugin), but i don't know whether they > work on windows installations.

To me that would say it's working. Bret
