Hi all,
I have configured spamd with greylisting on our OpenBSD Firewall and it
works very well, spam went close to zero :-). There is one issue though
that can cause long delay of mails:
If a mail is sent via a server pool, it can take quite long until it
happens to be sent 3 times from the same ip address and thus get
whitelisted and delivered. With a big server pool this can take hours.
Would it be possible to change this behaviour so that the whitelisting
is done as soon as the same sender/receiver pair is seen again,
ignoring the ip address? This could speed up things a bit.
I have been browsing through the sources in an attempt to hack this
myself, but my programming experience is as sparse as the comments are
;-). Can someone point me to the exact localtion? Or am i completely on
the wrong trip?
Regards,
Heinrich
