Thanks to all who have created milter-greylist! We deployed 1.6 Friday night, and the results are amazing. We now have milter-greylist running on our two MX's (using "peer"/"syncaddr"), and it's turning away about 2/3 of our incoming messages (that's unique tuples, counting only the initial and excluding retry attempts). The volume of spam reaching our users' INBOXes is way, way down. Before greylisting we averaged 60-80K messages per day here. Now as I said only 20-30K are getting through to our other filters. Memory used is about 30MB resident and 200-300MB total (virtual); greylist.db is at about 175K lines. (greylist 1h, autowhite 42d, timeout 2d) I was worried about how big this would get; those numbers are very manageable. -- Brent J.
