That's where I have always kept it through the many past versions ever
since we had more and more custom specific "rules" to apply to certain
targets -- then everything else thereafter naturally applied to the normal
greylisting rule. It *needs* to be last -- as long as you allow recipients
in you didn't expect emails from.

I really like the configurable things that have been added over the past
couple of years. MGL has really matured into a powerful program and much
praise to Emmanuel and those that are capable of contributing those great
patches!

IMHO from just a dumb user....
