Re: [milter-greylist] Unblock .edu?

Student dorms and such are a great source of viruses. We typically find
the authorized mail server that corresponds to a domain and whitelist
that IP address. Even within our own university we are very restrictive
about what IPs are whitelisted.

Move to quarantaine

This moves the raw source file on disk only. The archive index is not changed automatically, so you still need to run a manual refresh afterward.
