While not quite the delay of your reply :), sorry for the slow response.

Thank you for letting me know about the bug.
1.12 had one serious bug if you try to use it with Qmail's preline it can
generate errors in the system log and postpone delivery indefinitely.
Preline has an issue where if one exits a piped program before reading the
entire message it gives an error message (I had initially just been
reading headers). I posted back in November about the updated version.
If you are using Qmail and preline, I highly recommend upgrading.
There was another bug where duplicate addresses were being added to the
whitelist when CDB databases were being used and the e-mail address was
not lower case. I just fixed this bug. One can clean up any duplicate
entries with:
% cat whitelist-incoming | tr '[A-Z]' '[a-z]' | sort | uniq >
whitelist-incoming.new
% wc -l whitelist-incoming
% wc -l whitelist-incoming.new
% mv whitelist-incoming.new whitelist-incoming
I only had about 40 duplicate e-mail address, but your traffic may vary.
The latest version is available:
http://www.stassart.org/tmda/tmda-incoming
I made a few other minor improvements.
# Revision 1.16 2004/02/16 08:34:32 stassart
# Make sure CDB database is up to date, otherwise use text version.
# Check for undisclosed-recipients or Recipient list suppressed
# rather than logging an Invalid e-mail address.
#
# Revision 1.15 2004/02/16 07:55:53 stassart
# Fixed MAXADDR bug reported by Kyle Hasselbacher.

# Grab rest of data for preline.

Sure. Just add another list to check. If you use a text whitelist, you
can use the * and @= wildcards.

Thanks for the feedback.
I wrote this program for myself and users on my system, but thought others
may find it useful.
