Public bug reported:
Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS, 64-bit
postgrey 1.34-1
postgrey regulary starts to reject all emails with action "greylisted".
I checked log files and I see these strange messages there:
Mar 6 02:11:39 mda postgrey[1086]: cleaning up old logs...
Mar 6 02:11:40 mda postgrey[1086]: cleaning up old entries...

This is critical bug from my point of view, it is kind of DOS attack
because once this problem is triggered, all emails are rejected.
