Our strong system spam filtering option now works again
During a system upgrade back in May we accidentally made it so that our strong (system) spam filtering option (discussed on our System Spam Filtering page) was significantly less effective. We've now repaired that problem.
Technical details: normally, one of the things that strong system spam filtering does is that it automatically discards messages that PureMessage tags as spam. Our mistake made it stop doing that due to a necessary file being missing; now it's doing that again. Unfortunately, because of how the system is set up this failure was a silent one, with no messages logged about the missing file.
We regret any annoyance that this has caused people.
