    In my practical experiences, i have noticed only a very few emails 
from persons that couldnt fit in policyd database. Of course some 
mailing lists (ML) addresses were longer and couldnt fit.

    But analysing it again, i noticed that those unfitted ML addresses 
usually uses those bounce track numbers on the address, which will make 
them different for every single message people receives from those MLs. 
That way, 'to fit or not to fit' is not the question. The question is 
that messages will NEVER be 'seen again' because of the address always 
different.

    With those conclusions, i realized that policyd could stay with that 
addresses sizes in the database with absolutely no loss of performance 
of functionality.

    How to solve the ML always-different addresses problems ?? Just 
watch your logs and issue some whitelists to fit them ! I had to do that
