It was easy enough to build and install on the system without an RPM package.
Use it with my business mail server with virtually perfect success - much less load average than Spam Assassin, and no false positives, too. With Milter-Greylist and using the SpamHaus sbl-xbl black list, SPAM load is down over 98%. (from thousands per day to perhaps 20!) Now I protect a small ISP with it, with about 3,000 accounts. It uses LOTS of system resources when you get that big... We have a single mid-range Athlon system just for the greylisting, as the MX for the 500 or so domains - and that pretty well taps the machine! It has a tendency to get itself "confused" under very heavy loads, so we have a cron script that runs every 5 minutes to tail the maillog file and restart everything if it goes awry. But, it works pretty well. -Ben On Monday 13 February 2006 13:00, Joe Polk wrote:> Is anyone using Milter-Greylist?

I have a big problem on centos 3 though, it won't start correctly upon reboot. If I disable the service at boot, the system boots correctly, and I can start the milter manually w/o problem. We posted on the milter yahoo group about this problem, but got no answer. I haven't tried it on 4.2 yet. Any idea? -- Ugo -> Please don't send a copy of your reply by e-mail.
