Sendmail milters – not so open source anymore

by in MailScanner, Open Source, Spam Filtering

A couple of months ago I mentioned sendmail milters. Snert are no longer offering all of them under an open source license unfortunately. In some ways I can understand why they are doing it. Even programmers have to eat :) – however it is still sad to see software licenses changing like that.
The milter we are using, milter-ahead, is still available as “Free Source”, but milter-sender is now commercial.

    So far it looks like a capable replacement for milter-sender, but it won’t help with my search for a replacement for milter-ahead.
