SK2 – Simple Digest plugin – Version 1.20 Released

I am pleased to announce another important update to my Spam Karma 2 Simple Digest plugin – the latest version has some great new features developed on the back of the recent heavy spam runs that I am sure many of you have been suffering.

The major updates in this release are as follows:

  1. Ability to order the digest email by karma rather than date and time – this is to help make the possible ham comments that slip into the spam easier to spot as they would now be near the top of the email rather than interspersed (When you start getting 100K+ digests this really helps!)
  2. The last digest timestamp is now updated earlier to help ensure that those of you hit hard by concurrent spam runs don’t get multiple digest emails.
  3. The email now contains some special header information which makes it really simple to filter into a special folder in your INBOX if you want.

So I hear you ask what do these new email headers look like and how can I use them to filter my digest mails into a separate folder. Well there are now two extra rfc822 mail headers added to the digest emails, X-WordPress-Version and X-WordPress-Plugin, which detail the WordPress and Plugin versions like this:

X-WordPress-Version: WordPress/2.0.4-alpha/3440
X-WordPress-Plugin: Simple Digest/1.2/

These new headers can be taken advantage of with the follow simple Procmail recipe:

0:
* ^X-WordPress-Plugin: Simple Digest
.maildir.folder.name/
