[Phpwiki-talk] Announce: Blog::SpamAssassin & php integration

[Bob A. <apt...@cy...>]

Hi,

I just finished building a perl module to pass arbitrary text to
SpamAssassin to determine the spamminess of the content. More than a
list of bad words and domains or set of regular expressions, it
leverages the content and network tests of SpamAssassin, especially the
SURBL domain blacklist (www.surbl.org)

The code is documented and slightly tested. See
http://www.cynistar.net/~apthorpe/code/babycart/ especially
Blog-SpamAssassin-1.3.tar.gz and wordpress-spam-moderator.tgz (PHP code
that integrates Blog::SpamAssassin into Wordpress) The blog integration
code is straightforward, setting a moderation flag on posts that exceed
SpamAssassin's score threshold. While the code is designed to integrated
with Wordpress, it should be simple to incorporate in PhpWiki as well to
cut down on sandbox spam, etc.

You should be comfortable installing perl modules (not necessarily in
the system tree); SpamAssassin knowledge is a plus but not mandatory.

hth,
