INET sockets?

INET sockets?

2007-10-10 by Dan Mahoney, System Admin

Hey all,

I'd like to run milter-greylist on a different machine than my mail 
server, because the memory requirements are huge and I think it's fighting 
for space.

Is there a way to get the socket to listen on a TCP port instead?  I 
didn't see any mention of this in the manual, and the -p argument doesn't 
follow the milter standard, i.e. local:/some/file or inet:port@host, so 
I'm not sure if this is possible, and how to accomplish it.

It does, just follow generic milter docs and it will work.

Aah, can you please tweak this in docs as an example?  I've come across 
milters that could not do this, I assumed this to be another.
