dacl greylist spamd-score > 5 delay 6h
dacl greylist spamd-score > 10 delay 12h
dacl greylist spamd-score > 15 delay 24h
dacl blacklist spamd-score > 20

I would write the scores somewhat differently, doing

> 4 delay 12h
> 6 reject altogether


The key question is how milters interact. Currently I run
milter-greylist and spamass-milter, and spamassassin only sees things
after greylist says ok.

So what I'd really like to do is

not delay mail at all if it's really non-spammy (-1 or so)

delay most mail 30m or so to guard against botnets

delay mail on IP rbls for 24h

delay semi-spammy mail from non-whitelisted IPs for long enough to get
the URLs/IPs on the blacklist

not run SA too many times per message.


so spamd via dacl sounds good. that way it only runs after the racl
stage checks have succeeded.
