I'd prefer an XML based scheme, although I can live
with name/value. Sometimes not only the mailet, but
also the match condition itself could get a little
more complex. for example,i have one mailet that
checks what remote addresses are allowed to relay
emails, and i ended up with sth like
match="SenderIsAllowed=IP=127.0.0.1|255.255.255.255;10.20.81.109|255.0.0.0,
DN=apache.org;xyz.com"
which allows both IP and domain based filters. i have
to use several delimiters here '=|,;' here :)
anyway, a name/value pair interface should still work
for me... just more delimiters...
