Milter-greylist

Hi,

I have a very basic question about autowhite and
timeout.  I'm using v1.6.  Which way to set them is
better? set them the same (e.g. 7d), timeout is longer
than autowhite (timeout 14d, autowhite 7d) or the
other way (timeout 7d, autowhite 14d)?

Thanks!

Harvey

timeout: how long the tule remain in the greylist database
autowhite: hiw long the tuple remain in the whitelist database.

People usually prefer short timeout and long autowhite.
