To provide more options to our customers, we have installed Perl 5.0 and the latest version of Python on our servers. We have added Perl to our add-on choices at http://www.badgerwebhosting.com/addons.asp . We will let you know as soon as Python can be purchased through an update of this blog. Both languages are used throughout the internet and we hope this will add more choices of programming languages available to you as a developer.

This evening we changed our configuration for handling SPAM. Installed is SpamAssassin along with DCC and Razor 2.82 along with KM-Parse. In testing this has been proven to be a more effective way to handle spam on our servers. We recommend to our users to also download and configure SAProxy, which is now available off our site at http://www.badgerwebhosting.com/sa_proxy.asp . SAProxy uses the same SpamAssassin technology and will eliminate any spam that might be getting past our filters in SpamAssassin. Together the two are an effective means of controlling SPAM at your inbox. SAProxy will work with any Microsft Windows POP3 client and is very easy to install. Just make sure you read all instructions carefully while installing and through the documentation supplied.

Added new version of email antivirus software to email servers. Ver 0.88. This will give added protection to our servers. Removed some of the blocking in SmarterMail to get ready to receive new Anti-Spam configuration. New Anti-Spam software is installed but will require configuration locally at the server. I will update this blog when this has been accomplished.

Badger Web Hosting users can download SAProxy to their machines by going to the following:

Follow the instructions contained with the software and it will allow you to setup filtering in addition to ours on your work station. This software is compatible with all versions of Microsoft email clients using POP3.
