Re: [milter-greylist] Recommendation for static ADSL IP's

Well,
That would be a fairly cool thing!
What I would be a bit concerned a bit is that in our case the
milter-greylist is running in de-militarized zone on the MTA. On our LAN
we have Microsoft AD domain which could be potentially used to store
greylisting data, but MTA could be potentially compromised and thus
expose the whole Active Directory to the attacker...
