Package: milter-greylist Version: 3.0-3+b1 Followup-For: Bug #449557 I was a late, and reluctant, convert - and one thing that made the switch palatable was the availability of whitelists like dnswl.org.
The idea is that large (and small - heck, even my home domain is listed) sites can define their mail servers (and rating - 0..5); being listed in this, or other whitelist should mean that greylisting can be avoided for quite a bit of mail, which - whilst not affecting normal deliveries, does prevent the ~monthly timeouts, and subsequent delays. Iirc, glibc's resolver routines should be thread-safe; and would likely mean no new dependancies. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing-proposed-updates APT policy: (500, 'testing-proposed-updates'), (500, 'proposed-updates'), (500, 'oldstable'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.24.4 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages milter-greylist depends on: ii adduser 3.108 add and remove users and groups ii libc6 2.7-12 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libmilter1.0.1 8.14.3-5 Sendmail Mail Filter API (Milter) ii libspf2-2 1.2.5.dfsg-5 library for validating mail sender Versions of packages milter-greylist recommends: ii sendmail 8.14.3-5 powerful, efficient, and scalable -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
