+==== How did eFa start? ====
-After using ESVA for a long time the ESVA project died, a few restarts were attempted by the community but none of them really got through, because we were in need of a new spam filter we had build our own spam filter using just open-source tools, after a while we decided to create a virtual-machine and release the build script we used for the community to enjoy, this has become E.F.A.

+==== Why should I use eFa? ====
-If you don't want to spend hours and hours to configure your own spam filter or want to spend allot of money on a comercial spam filter then E.F.A. is a good alternative. The downloadable virtual machine is a 'out-of-the-box' working spam filter that should protect your mail server to almost all spam.

 ==== Are there alternatives? ====
-If you want a complete out-of-the-box-product, then you can choose for one of the many commercial products. However, if you are looking for a open-source out-of-the-box-product, E.F.A. is one of its kind.

 ==== I am unable to import the Hyper-V image ====
-If you receive the error: operation failed with error code ‘32784’ then you are importing to an ‘old’ hyper-v version.
+No longer applicable
-Importing from newer versions is not supported by Hyper-V.
-The workaround is to create a new VM and use the hard-disk from the zip file. Make sure you create an VM with the following hardware:
-  * Generation 1 VM
-  * IDE HDD (attach the vhd disk from the zip)
-  * 2GB MEM
-  * 2 CPU
-  * 1 NIC

-==== What happened to E.F.A. 0.3 ====
+==== What happened to eFa 0.3 ====
-E.F.A. 0.3 was based on Debian and the Baruwa 1.x web interface, sadly Baruwa decided to stop development on Baruwa 1.x and move on to an new system. We tried to implement the new Baruwa interface but lots of request came in for the MailWatch interface, for that reason we decided to stop using Baruwa and move over to an completely new setup based on MailWatch.
