UK based magazine 'Linux Format' this month has published an article on 'Getting Rid of Spam'. Guess which Bayesian filter was chosen over Spamassassin and bogofilter? Yep, thats right Dspam!

The article is a 4 page tutorial, starting on page 90 of LFX issue 121 (August 2009). If I can get copy permissions for the articleI'll post it up on the wiki.

Please note, the old domain name name for the dspam project has been moved.

A new website has been hosted on SF.

Any legacy services that might have been hosted on nuclearelephant.com have been discontinued, in particular rabl.nuclearelephant.com

The RABL was an experimental feature which we hope to look into again in the future
