Description-en: spamassassin plugin to check image attachments
This Spamassassin plugin checks for specific keywords in image/gif,
image/jpeg or image/png attachments, using gocr (an optical character
recognition program). This plugin can be used to detect spam that
puts all the real spam content in an attached image, while the mail
itself is only random text and random html, without any URL's or
identifiable information. Additionally to the normal OcrPlugin, it
can do approximate matches on words, so errors in recognition or
attempts to obfuscate the text inside the image will not cause the
detection to fail.
.
This is a development version from SVN. Currently, this SVN
version is the only one that works with spamassassin 3.2.
