Baruwa is a web 2.0 MailScanner frontend which can be used to build Robust and Efficient Mail Security systems based on the best of breed Open source packages.
Baruwa 2.0 represents many changes from previous releases. Baruwa 2.0 is a ground up rewrite of Baruwa 1.0 using the Pylons framework with a PostgreSQL backend.
The stability and performance improvements due to the rewrite now place Baruwa far ahead of any other MailScanner management systems currently available.
Baruwa 2.0 will be delivered in 3 versions:
Due to the fact that Baruwa 2.0 is built from a different code base there is no direct upgrade path.
Users are advised to create new installations and then migrate any required data out of the older solutions.
Consultancy services in planning migrations are available from the Developer.
If you do not need the new features in Baruwa 2.0 there is no need to migrate as the Baruwa 1.0 branch will continue being supported.
Full user and administrator documentation is available as part of the release as well as online.
