Dear VPS/Dedicated cPanel Customers

A bug has been discovered within the SpamAssassin ruleset that will mark messages sent in the year 2010 and beyond with a higher spam score than expected. This bug can result in legitimate mail being flagged as spam.

A hot fix has been issued that will address this issue and will automatically update the SpamAssassin ruleset toresolve this issue. If you have automatic cPanel updates enabled, no further action is required.
If you do not have automatic cPanel updates enabled, you can manually update the SpamAssassin ruleset by executing the following commands in a root shell:

/scripts/autorepair spamd_y2010_fix

For a more detailed explanation and information on resolving this problem on a non-cPanel environment, please review:
