I'm confused ...  greylist.db is _not_ a socket, it's a
plain file.  The error message seems to be wrong.

Of course, it's not an executable, so 755 doesn't make
sense.  Mine is 600 FWIW, but it could as well be 640 or
644 or anything else that is at least u+rw and a-x.

I think 660 or 666 does not make sense either, despite
what the error message is saying.  Why would any process
except milter-greylist have to write to the dumpfile?

Best regards
