Chanty vs Rspamd: at a glance
What is Chanty?
Chanty's feed is an HR statistics content mill, not a product changelog
Every entry in the window is a marketing article — referral, theft and satisfaction statistics roundups, plus a run of competitor-alternatives listicles published in a single batch. Nothing here describes a change to the messaging product itself.
What is Rspamd?
Rspamd 4.3 fixes SPF evaluation order and rejects weak DKIM keys, with results that change.
Rspamd 4.3.0 on November 13 is a correctness release with a long incompatible-changes list. SPF records are now evaluated in term order, closing a case where an explicit -ip4 deny could be overridden by a broader allow. DKIM rejects RSA keys under 1024 bits and signatures with duplicate tags, DMARC no longer drops a policy over an unknown tag, URL mismatches are scored apart from phishing, and PDF text extraction and archive unpacking change their output. Critical fixes cover a header line that could abort a worker from one unauthenticated HTTP request.

◆ Current state
Every entry in the window is a marketing article — referral, theft and satisfaction statistics roundups, plus a run of competitor-alternatives listicles published in a single batch. Nothing here describes a change to the messaging product itself.
◆ Where it's heading
The publishing effort is going into search-driven HR and collaboration content aimed at buyers comparing team chat tools, with the alternatives posts targeting Slack, Yammer, Jive, Google Chat and Skype by name. Product direction cannot be read from this feed at all.
◆ Prediction
Expect more statistics roundups and comparison listicles; the feed gives no basis for predicting anything about the product.
Rspamd
5.0COMMS
Rspamd 4.3 fixes SPF evaluation order and rejects weak DKIM keys, with results that change.
◆ Current state
Rspamd 4.3.0 on November 13 is a correctness release with a long incompatible-changes list. SPF records are now evaluated in term order, closing a case where an explicit -ip4 deny could be overridden by a broader allow. DKIM rejects RSA keys under 1024 bits and signatures with duplicate tags, DMARC no longer drops a policy over an unknown tag, URL mismatches are scored apart from phishing, and PDF text extraction and archive unpacking change their output. Critical fixes cover a header line that could abort a worker from one unauthenticated HTTP request.
◆ Where it's heading
Since 4.1, every release has hardened parsers and closed memory-safety and trust gaps; 4.3 applies the same pass to the authentication standards themselves (SPF, DKIM, DMARC, ARC) and to content extraction. Operators should expect scores and fuzzy hashes to shift after upgrading, because the project now favours spec-correct results over backward-compatible ones.
◆ Prediction
A 4.3.x point release fixing regressions from these behaviour changes is the likely next step, as 4.2.1 followed 4.2.0 within two weeks.
