I seem to recall something about abstracting out the pending message handling routines such that pending messages could be stored in any of several different formats including a Maildir so that users could manage (or at least access) their pending queue via an IMAP compliant reader. And what about TMDA-CGI? Is gre7g still around maintaining that or will the new TMDA maintainers be taking up the reigns on that one as well?
Also I've got a couple of personal enhancements I made to TMDA giving it the ability to append to db based lists via DB_PENDING_BLACKLIST_APPEND, DB_PENDING_WHITELIST_APPEND, DB_PENDING_RELEASE_APPEND and DB_PENDING_DELETE_APPEND similar to the way DB_BARE_APPEND extends the BARE_APPEND functionality to databases. I'd be happy to share these modifications with the new maintainers as they were relatively easy enhancements to TMDAs pending functionality. Thanks again Jason for your deeply appreciated contributions to the fight against SPAM.
