Hi Nerijus,

I can't even tell if it is running:

[root@mail init.d]# service milter-greylist stop
Stopping Milter-Greylist:                                  [  OK  ]
[root@mail init.d]# service milter-greylist status
milter-greylist is stopped
[root@mail init.d]# service milter-greylist start
Starting Milter-Greylist:                                  [  OK  ]
[root@mail init.d]# service milter-greylist status
milter-greylist dead but subsys locked
[root@mail init.d]# ps auwx | grep greylist
root     19227  0.0  0.0   3920   692 pts/10   S+   15:23   0:00 grep
greylist
[root@mail init.d]#

I think it runs as root:

[root@mail init.d]# cd /etc/rc.d/init.d/
[root@mail init.d]# ls -l
total 700
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root  1784 Feb  9 16:48 milter-greylist

Regards,
Arjun
