configuration options

2005-05-25 by Martin Paul

Hi,

I've cross checked code, usage() and man pages for all options (command line
and greylist.conf), and after these changes everything should be consistent:

In greylist.conf.5, line 289, the "verbose" option (enable debug output)
is mentioned to be equivalent to -d, while it is really -v which 
enables debug output.

Additionally, the "lazyaw" option is missing from the greylist.conf
man page.

Other ideas:

The -l command line option (enable debug in acl code) to milter-greylist
doesn't have an equivalent option for greylist.conf - I guess it would
make sense to add this. Could be useful to enable acl debugging on the
fly, and the only other command line options without equivalent greylist.conf
options are -c, -f configfile, -h, and -r (greylist.conf options for
those wouldn't make sense).

Is there anybody running milter-greylist without a greylist.conf ?
One could argue that it makes sense to remove all but those 4 command
line options completely, and leave configuration to greylist.conf.
It's cleaner to update the configuration file than the startup file
to modify milter-greylist behaviour, and the documentation would
become more straight-forward. Opinions, anyone ?
