We are pleased to announce the release of Warden Anti-spam and Virus Protection 6.00 under General Availability. This is a major release release and all users are encouraged to upgrade.
Spam Reports
We've added a new spam report page when clicking the magnifying glass under Logs -> Message log. This give users the ability to view filter checks, anti-spam rules, and scoring for each message without having to look at the mail headers.
Rule Scores
We've added a new page under Rules -> Rule Scores for viewing and managing SpamAssassin rule scores.
Rule Statistics
We've added a new custom RuleStatistics plugin for logging real-time per-rule statistics for each email, allowing admins to easily analyze rule performance and identify false positives/negatives.

[=] Updated the installer to detect and use utf8mb4 as the default database character set on new installations. This character set supports the full Unicode standard, including emojis and rare characters. We have also created a KB article for administrators who want to convert their Warden database to use the utf8mb4 character set. See here for more information.
[=] Further optimized the log parser so it works better on busy servers with persistent systemd-journal logging enabled.
[=] Renamed the rules page to custom rules. The command line task has also been renamed from warden --task=antispam:rules to warden --task=antispam:rules:customrules.
[=] User interface improvements for select lists and auto suggests to handle longer values better.
[=] Updated machine translated locales for better accuracy.
[=] Updated the Warden custom button to be hidden if a subscription user was created using an external email address since they do not have access to manage Warden.
[=] Updated the default LogSyslog options for ClamAV to be no on Debian/Ubuntu to prevent duplicate log entries.
[=] Installer/uninstaller improvements.
[=] Tools -> Spam report improvements.
