very nice, the greyfilter module was something I was really missing! 

We are now very near to a "one stop solution" for doing all things
needed in todays email warfare with courier and only ONE additional
tool! Great!

A few questions: 

1. Is there any documentation, besides the README ? 

2. Did anybody do any performance testing? 
   I have to sacrifice so much memory just for spam and virus
   handling... it really makes me depressive seeing clamcour with 
   17m RSS + 33m clamd RSS + some more to give for spamassassin... 
   and that is on a not very busy box! Every byte counts! ;)

3. Related to 2: How does the clamav module interact with clam? 
   is it using clamd or the binary? If I understand things right, 
   pyclamav is using the clamav libs, so can I get rid of the       
   33m clamd process??? (Biiiig Eyes...)
   Or are the libs just needed to contact the 33m clamd process???

4. Is it possible to define if
    - outgoing only 
    - incoming only
    - outgoing AND incoming
   email is checked with the clamav module?

5. How can I use whitelist_auth AND have the outgoing email beeing
   checked by clamav?

6. Does the order of modules listed in pythonfilter.conf have any 
   meaning (maybe related 5) ?

7. Is there any auto_whitelist feature? How would one implement this:
   
   outgoing:
   auto_whitelist to: addresses, if sender is whitelist_auth-ed
   check for viruses anyway 
   (yes, we want to protect users even from sending viruses!)
   reject, if virus found, else send mail   

   incoming:
   do not greylist sender address, if it was auto_whitelist-ed
   scan for viruses anyway


Hope, my questions make sense...


Thanks for your attention!

Tommy
