Milter-greylist

Yea, I grabbed 1.3.4 last night and put it on our cluster of 5 or so
mail servers.  (somewhat of a forced upgrade... we were in desperate
need of the dumpfreq setting)  We have the greylist.conf auto generated
from a database every time someone changes their settings from a
web-based interface.  We also monitor the processes on all 5 of these
mail servers to make sure all the necessary processes are running all of
the time.  I can reliably go into the web interface, make a change, and
minutes later all of our mail servers are red on the monitor and paging
us, angry that milter-greylist is no longer running.  ;-)  While I don't
recall 1.2.2 crashing all at once like this, it hadn't been particularly
reliable either, so we've just kind of got used to having a cron job
setup to restart it periodically.

We're running on slack linux, 8.1.  Somewhat dated distro, but we
maintain our own packages and update as security flaws are discovered. 
I believe the version of bison we're using is 1.35, but we've never had
any problems related to the bison version before.

Let me know if there's anything I can do to help... I've never done much
with gdb for debugging and we don't have the systems setup to dump
cores, so I'm not sure how much help I can be, but I'll do what I can.

Also, props on a very nice piece of software.  It's very effective at
what it does, when it's running.  ;-)

Cheers,

~Ethan B.
