I appreciate the feedback, David. A Berkley DB hash should be fine for this purpose. I do have existing greylist lookup/manipulation functions that I can reverse-engineer to get the jist of what I'm looking for. (Unfortunately, I'm not a strong perl guy, and the gent that wrote our greylist functions has since moved on to "other career opportunities").

Not $Subject, specifically, but our CanIt product is almost completely database-driven. We use a PostgreSQL database, but for what you want, any SQL database would probably be fine, or even just Berkeley DB with a tied hash. If you go the SQL route, just create a table of subjects, with an index for speedy lookup, and you should be fine.
