I've submitted a PR for this, but email administrators who use = SpamAssassin may wish to take immediate action. There is a SpamAssassin rule which treats messages with dates after 2009 = as "far in the future". This adds about 3 points to the SA score, so is = very substantial. I've posted details and links here = http://jpgoldberg.blogspot.com/2010/01/sky-is-falling-first-y2010-bug.html= But as an immediate, though possibly temporary, work around I would = recommend just adding score FH_DATE_PAST_20XX 0 to your own local.cf file to disable the rule. There is discussion on the SA mailing list, and it is likely that some = fix will be in with the next batch of rule updates for those who use = sa-update. But if you aren't willing to wait or you don't use = sa-update, I recommend the above workaround. Cheers, -j --=20 Jeffrey Goldberg http://www.goldmark.org/jeff/
