[Rspamd-Users] Rspamd 2.1 has been released

[Vsevolod Stakhov]

We have released Rspamd 2.1 today.

This release contains some new features and many bug fixes. There are no
incompatible changes introduced with this release to our best knowledge.

This release includes the following features and important fixes.


Add uuencode support

Despite of being very old standard, UUenconde parts are still quite
common in the email traffic observed. From this version, Rspamd supports
uuencoded parts (both normal and base64 version).


Critical issue found in dkim verification

There was a critical regression in 2.0 DKIM verification code caused
verification failures for some of the valid DKIM signatures. More
details are in the GitHub issue.


Improved neural training

There are number of fixes and improvements in the Neural module. Now all
training samples are balanced using random sampling allowing a smoother
training vectors selection. Some number of bugs has been fixed, as well
as scores are NO LONGER RECOMMENDED to select training vectors - Rspamd
automatically applies heuristic to select messages for learning. Also
some issues around infinities and learning threads count have been
addressed.


Maps fixes

There are number of fixes and improvements around maps handling logic.
This include fixes for both HTTP and file maps, as well as better
timeout and caches handling.


Event loop fixes

Rspamd could previously select an inefficient backend on some OSes,
notably, on BSD and OSx. This version should fix it. The ability to
configure the events backend manually via the configuration file has
also been added to Rspamd.
