spamdb: convert greylisted addresses to whitelisted servers?
I've been looking at the source and I've read the man page but I don't see a way to convert a greylisted entry to a whitelisted entry. Is it possible or just unnecessary? # spamdb -a 12.34.56.78 # spamdb | grep 12.34.56.78 WHITE|12.34.56.78|||1175817375|1175819030|1178929430|1|2 GREY|12.34.56.78|[EMAIL PROTECTED]|[EMAIL PROTECTED]|1175815019|1175829419| 1175829419|4|0 #
