Thats the behaviour i expect and if resend after the 6 min the triple
gets autowhitelisted for the default value of 7 days not for the 5
days specified at the acl they should hit.
Sorry for posting only that one line. It illustrates the first attempt
of such mail and the hit acl. The log-entry "...autowhitelisted
for..." did not inform about the acl taken. So i did not post such line.

I tried 1s but was not sure if that was the fault, because timeout is
set to 5d. Somwhere i read if autowhite is smaler than timeout the
defualt autowhite will be taken.
But now i think the regex /^$/ will not be hit by those messages with
empty from field.
The above acl resides at line 153 of the config and is the first acl
of type greylist. And as i understood the docu the first hit line will
do the job.

Kind regards
