Fine. What about giving us an option to load a file at startup then?
You can put a warning saying a restart is required to read changes.

That's an old problem: libmilter takes care of signals. As I understand
it means milter-greylist cannot catch SIGHUP. I would appreciate
a callback for it in the API, but it did not happen.
The way it works now is that we stat(2) the config file on each
ACl evaluation, and if mtime changed, we reload it.
