Milter-greylist

I had noticed it on the to-do list at
http://hcpnet.free.fr/milter-greylist/ but there isn't much info there,
not even sample configs or howtos. I also checked the README and
couldn't find any references to LDAP, so I assumed that it wasn't ready
for production environments, or the version that had the feature hadn't
been released into FreeBSD ports.

 

Also, wouldn't the LDAP queries take a (relatively) long time and a lot
(relatively) more resources than this method, or are the
differences/loads in question not worth comparing/worrying about? We are
a high traffic site but only about 150 active addresses, so I would have
thought this method more suitable anyway, but, again, it might not be
enough to worry about.

 

I am glad to at least have greylisting working, now, which has cut our
quarantine count down to about 100 a day requiring human oversight.

You know that latest versions of milter-greylist are able to dynamically
query a LDAP directory, right? It's even possible to make per-recipient
whitelists.
