Hi: Thanks for the reply! I was worried because I do enjoy this list and
this particular milter (plus milter-regex) has really relieved the load on
resources needed to run the other layers of spam tools. Now, I hardly ever
see spamassassin needed now and it soaks up the power!

I have been running v1.5.6 since the day it came out and no problems at all.

My platform is FBSD-4.10-p2

It is clear that the closer to the MTA "front door" we can get to catching
stuff, the better. I am really enjoying the "milters".

I too agree with your "bravo"....!!
