Milter-greylist

Hi,

I have installed and am running milter-greylist 3.0 (will upgrade to 
4.0 once it's 'released'), and I was wondering how triplet timeout works?

I configured and compiled using:

CFLAGS="-O2 -march=i686 -mcpu=i686" \
./configure --prefix=/usr/local \
             --sysconfdir=/etc \
             --with-delay=900 \
             --with-timeout=18000 \
             --with-autowhite=3110400

and looking at /var/milter-greylist/greylist.db, there are entries in 
the greylist which are older that 18000 seconds (5 hours). Is 
'timeout' for this purpose?
