Best version of milter-greylist for Solaris/OmniOS server?

2016-01-17 by Bob Friesenhahn

I am building a new mail server based on OmniOS (based on Illumos 
derived from OpenSolaris).  This is to replace a Solaris 10 server 
which has successfully been running milter-greylist 4.2.2 since May 
2009.

The milter-greylist web site (http://hcpnet.free.fr/milter-greylist/) 
recommends 4.4.3 as the stable version to use, but 4.5.16 is available 
for development testing ("not for production").  Unlike fine wine, 
software does not get better with time.  It seems that there is useful 
development and fixes in newer versions.

Is 4.4.3 the best to use on an OmniOS server or is another version 
proven more suitable for my situation?

The Milter library provided with OmniOS is only 32-bit so it seems 
that the Solaris file descriptor limit needs to be paid attention to 
(e.g. --enable-stdio-hack).

Thanks,

Bob
