To my knowledge there aren't any patches to swap the bdb backend for a DBI/mysql one, but it should be reasonably straightforward. You might want to compare with Evan Harris' reference implementation at http://www.greylisting.org/ (Implementations/Sendmail) which is in perl and uses mysql. A simpler alternative might be to just nfs-share your BDB database, but you'd have to be careful about the locking and I imagine it would perform worse than a network db version. Cheers, Gavin
