The latest development version can be obtained at any given time from the SpamAssassin Subversion (SVN) repository. Please note that this code can be quite unstable and we don't recommend running it on real or important mail unless you really know what you are doing.

Wiki MarkupTo do this, you will need to install subversion. \[http:// subversion. tigris.org/ Subversion website\] \[http://svnbook.red-bean.com/ Subversion book\] Note that the server components are *not required* -- – just the 'svn' command and its dependencies.

If you are tracking the SVN tree, you should probably subscribe to the SpamAssassin-Dev mailing list – see MailingLists.
