SPAM filter included in Cpanel – SpamAssassin

SpamAssassin is a mature, widely-deployed open source project that serves as a mail filter to identify Spam. SpamAssassin uses a variety of mechanisms including header and text analysis, Bayesian filtering, DNS blocklists, and collaborative filtering databases. SpamAssassin runs on a server, and filters spam before it reaches your mailbox.

This tool is included in standard Cpanel control panel.

SpamAssassin assign a score to each email, if the email scores higher than user specified max score, then it will be flagged as SPAM by SpamAssassin.

 Most of the configuration, updates are done by WHM or the hosting company, as a user of cpanel and email service, users doesn’t need to do anything except ENABLE the service and set a max score before it is flagged as spam. Default value is 5, higher value will be more conservative.

User may also set the SpamAssassin to automatically delete all spam emails from cpanel control panel. The default value is disabled.

ResellerClub / OrderBox remove Frontpage extension.

ResellerClub or OrderBox, one of the largest domain name, web hosting reseller has announced that they will discontinue support for FrontPage Extensions 2002 w.e.f 1st Oct 2007 and thus Frontpage Server Extensions will no longer be supported.

Existing customer can either upload using FTP or move to another host that still support Frontpage . My advise to users is to upload using FTP client, it is faster and convinient to use.

CPanel hosts are still support Frontpage extension, however I am not sure how long they will keep support this.

Note: Latest securities fix for FrontPage Extensions for Unix/Linux does not support Apache 2. Microsoft has end-of-lifed this product and will be removing them from their site.
