Missing quarantine option

2016-08-26 by Christian Pélissier

Hi,

I found no quarantine option for milter-greylist racl and dacl
(only blacklist, greylist or whitelist).

Milter API now offer a smfi_quarantine callback to put incoming
mail into quarantine in the mail queue.


A quarantine option should be useful and could be a temporary
stage directive before using blacklist. For example if 

racl quarantine from /.*@xxxxxx\.com/ reason "Detected as SPAM"

Is there a technical reason not implementing quarantine option ?


PS

Managing sendmail quarantine is easy 

First quarantine works if you declare FEATURE(`delay_checks')dnl inside
sendmail.mc

List quarantined mail in queue : mailq -qQ

Release an email from quarantine state : sendmail -qQ -qI$QID
where $QID is the QID see with mailq -qQ

Move to quarantaine
