spf-milter and perl 5.6.1
We are running activestates perl 5.6.1. This is because it was part of Puremessage. Will the SPF milter run on 5.6.1?

Thank You,
Mark

Hi,

You will need a threaded perl to run the milter, which you can check by doing a perl -V.

I think it should run under the version you mention.

Koen,

I double checked:

This is perl, v5.6.1 built for PA-RISC1.1-thread-multi
(with 1 registered patch, see perl -V for more detail)
Copyright 1987-2001, Larry Wall
Binary build 635 [PureMessage build 401] provided by ActiveState Corp. http://www.ActiveState.com
Built 20:57:27 Jun 10 2003

If unfortunate that we are having to manually install this. Puremessage is good and we've been pushing them to add SPF for months.

Oh well..

Mark

Ok, but I don't see why it wouldn't run with your current perl. What
you're looking for I believe is a line that says:

Compile-time options: MULTIPLICITY USE_ITHREADS USE_LARGE_FILES PERL_IMPLICIT_CONTEXT

It's the USE_ITHREADS you want in there.. This is somewhere near the end
of 'perl -V' output..

You might consider upgrading perl anyway, I'm not sure if there have
been much security / performance upgrades or important bugfixes since
5.6.1.
