DisSpam is a personal solution to combat spam (i.e. not for mailservers/ISPs). It is a Perl script that removes spam from POP3 mailboxes based on RBLs such as orbz.org. It runs through cron and uses a very simple configuration file.

The API changed in SpamAssassin and requires a little editing in the disspam.pl to work.

old line:

$status->get_full_message_as_text();

change to:

$status->get_message();

I also found some erie areas where old non spam was flagged as spam (probably the way disspam hashes each message for a signature and later finds a match), so when it checks the message again it think it is a spam. I just rem'd the line out and undef it.

# It's old spam

undef $reason;

#$reason = "Message previously detected as spam";
