Hi all,

I have configured spamd with greylisting on our OpenBSD Firewall and it works very well, spam went close to zero :-). There is one issue though that can cause long delay of mails: If a mail is sent via a server pool, it can take quite long until it happens to be sent 3 times from the same ip address and thus get whitelisted and delivered. With a big server pool this can take hours.

Would it be possible to change this behaviour so that the whitelisting is done as soon as the same sender/receiver pair is seen again, ignoring the ip address? This could speed up things a bit.

I have been browsing through the sources in an attempt to hack this myself, but my programming experience is as sparse as the comments are ;-). Can someone point me to the exact localtion? Or am i completely on the wrong trip?

Regards,

        Heinrich
