Milter-greylist

Hello!

The reason for my question is that i use some other milter-plugins which are depending on the other values supplied by some of the default milter-marcos (which gets stripped away if you follow the milter-greylist example).

Per default sendmail 8.13 gives me these milter-macros:

# Milter options
O Milter.LogLevel=12
O Milter.macros.connect=j, _, {daemon_name}, {if_name}, {if_addr}
O Milter.macros.helo={tls_version}, {cipher}, {cipher_bits}, {cert_subject}, {cert_issuer}
O Milter.macros.envfrom=i, {auth_type}, {auth_authen}, {auth_ssf}, {auth_author}, {mail_mailer}, {mail_host}, {mail_addr}
O Milter.macros.envrcpt={rcpt_mailer}, {rcpt_host}, {rcpt_addr}
O Milter.macros.eom={msg_id}

In the milter-greylist README it's stated that you should change the milter-marco configuration to this:

> O Milter.macros.connect=j,{if_addr}
> O Milter.macros.envfrom=i, {auth_authen}
> 
> Alternatively, you can use the following m4 macros definitions

> define(`confMILTER_MACROS_ENVFROM', `i, {auth_authen}')

My question is, isn't this unnecessary since those "variables" are supplied with the sendmail "orginal" milter-macros in sendmail.cf

You are right: there is no need to alter the config if you already have
them.

Shouldn't all that be handled by milter-greylist.m4?

It does if you do use it. Not everyone uses milter-greylist.m4 to generate
sendmail.cf
