Re: [milter-greylist] "Dark-grey"listing dynamic IP address

That is really cool!

I'd be interested in combining the extendedregex with variable  
greylisting times.

say... 1 hr for some hosts that are more likely to be spam
and    1 min for some hosts that are more likely to be ham.

Someone suggested keeping track of the amount of spam/ham from a  
host, and then
adjusting the time based on that. That also sounds interesting but  
will the db get
unwieldy after awhile?

In the past spammers used to only use one acct/ip for a short time,  
then snag another one.
So in this case the tracking may only have to last a week.
