Well, there isn't a tutorial anywhere that I found, I basically interpreted where to patch based on the install. I can share with you what I did.

I placed the greylisting-20060105.patch file in my /usr/local/src/tar folder (I put everything in /usr/local/src)

I followed to the toaster instructions (with some variations since I am using mysql with my mail server) until I reached this point:

<TOASTER REFERENCE>

# add qmail toaster patch now that vpopmail is installed
cd /usr/local/src/netqmail-1.05/netqmail-1.05
bunzip2 -c ../../tar/qmail-toaster-0.8.1.patch.bz2 | patch -p0
make clean
make
qmailctl stop
make setup check

</TOASTER REFERENCE>

I made this change:

# add qmail toaster patch now that vpopmail is installed
cd /usr/local/src/netqmail-1.05/netqmail-1.05
bunzip2 -c ../../tar/qmail-toaster-0.8.1.patch.bz2 | patch -p0
patch < /usr/local/src/tar/greylisting-20060105.patch 
make clean
make
qmailctl stop
make setup check


It did report that it offset in 2 places in the Make file, but I had no errors and the patch went through successfully. I should also note that I also added in the qmailtap patch at the same time.

You need to make sure you alter the patch file as well as local_scan.c and ensure all of your database stuff is properly set up and configured. Failing to do this will not crash your mail server, but the greylist feature will simply not work and all mail will get through unchallenged.

Hello Michael, hello all,

where can I find a HowTo for a toaster installing with greylisting feature??

Brilliant - I have Greylisting working and I've shortened the timeout
and things seem to be working swimingly.
