Version 1.0a6 of the SpamBayes source is now available.

Note: this is not a release of the binary installer for the Outlook plug-in. A separate release for the plug-in installer will follow at a later date.

This release follows (reasonably) close on the heals of 1.0a5 and is primarily a reshuffling and tidy-up. All the scripts have been renamed, and all the cruft supporting old option names has been removed. This will almost certainly mean that you have to edit the way you use SpamBayes (to change the name, at least).

There are a few other minor improvements and bug fixes. We recommend that all source code users upgrade to the 1.0a6 release, but do so at a time when they have a few minutes available to change over references to script names, and to check their configuration files are using the correct names.

Note that the plan is for this to be the final alpha release in the 1.0 series, and that 1.0 is effectively feature frozen from this point. We will continue to fix any bugs that are reported, and should be able to release a very stable 1.0b1 and then final 1.0 release in the near future. Work will soon begin on the 1.1 series, which will (no doubt!) feature many improvements.
