bogofilter 0.9.0.5(beta) on SourceForge

				bogofilter news

0.9.0.5	2002-11-27
   * New script contrib/bogopass allows processing of base64
     attachments.  This is a temporary solution until base64
     code can be built into bogofilter.
   * New file README.Robinson describes the tunable parameters
     for the Robinson algorithm and what to do for best performance.
   * Changed the default behavior to use the Robinson algorithm.
   * Corrected incorrect sort order when printing statistics.
   * Added support for Fisher's method of combining probabilities,
     as optimized for this purpose by Rob W. W. Hooft, to the
     "Robinson" algorithm.
   * The new file METHODS describes the Graham, Robinson, and Fisher
     methods that bogofilter supports for computing spamicity.
   * New file README.dcdflib gives some info on the dcdflib free
     library of routines for cumulative distribution functions.
   * A new '-f' option tells bogofilter to use Fisher's method.
   * A new '-c' option in bogofilter allows specification of the
     configuration file to read.
   * A new '-C' option tells bogofilter not to read any config file.
   * The syslog facility in '-l' mode has changed from "daemon" to "mail",
     so your logs may now be in /var/log/maillog or /var/log/mail rather
     than /var/log/messages. Check your /etc/syslog.conf.
   * The testing framework now works on Solaris.

   Internal Changes:

   * Fixed several portability problems uncovered by the new
     regression tests.

bogofilter 0.9.1 released

Bogofilter version 0.9.1 has been released.  The default classification 
method has been changed from the Graham algorithm to the Robinson algorithm 
for improved reliability and accuracy.  The documentation has been expanded 
and covers the many new command line and config file options.  The changes 
since 0.8.0 are printed below.
