This is the awaited upgrade to SC v4.5 :-) Richard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wazoo Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 Due to some unexpected hardware problems, this maintenance/upgrade has been delayed until Tuesday March 17. Probably around the same time, but will update once we know for sure. Richard > v4.5 - does it fix anything? Does it improve anything? The upgrade will be virtually transparent to the users, though it will fix the nagging copyright notice :-) Mostly it fixes some things that will provide behind the scenes stability and also gives us some tools to tweak some things we couldn't tweak before. It incorporates fixes for a long list of bug reports we've been reporting for quite a while. In the last year or so Ironport has gone away from hot patches, instead stacking things into version builds, unless it is a critical issue. These go through extensive beta testing before going live. Those that have been around for years will remember the infamous hot patches that would break things severely, sometimes for days at a time.

During this time the SpamCop Reporting Service website may not be available for a period of up to two hours in duration.

Visitors will see the SpamCop reporting website in "Maintenance Mode" through the process. Emailed spam submissions will still be accepted, but processing will be delayed. It will no doubt take a few hours to catch up with the backlog when things are brought back up. Richard tick, tick, tick... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
