Greylist

[Jason Burzenski]

Hi all,

I was wondering if anyone else would benefit from a feature that would add a
greylist option to automatically consider matching messages as low scoring
spam.  This would effectively eliminate the "Definite Spam Is High Scoring"
because you would have a blacklist option that would automatically treat
matching messages as high scoring spam.

To keep consistent with the current config, you could change (from my
config):

Is Definitely Not Spam = %rules-dir%/spam.whitelist.rules
Is Definitely Spam = %rules-dir%/spam.greylist.rules
Definite Spam Is High Scoring = %rules-dir%/spam.blacklist.rules

To:

Is Definitely Not Spam = %rules-dir%/spam.whitelist.rules
Is Definitely Spam = %rules-dir%/spam.greylist.rules
Is Definitely High Scoring Spam = %rules-dir%/spam.blacklist.rules

This seems more logical to me.  I can emulate this by including a ruleset in
Definite Spam Is High Scoring but that means it has to match both the
greylist.rules and the blacklist.rules files for it to be considered high
scoring spam.  My greylist rules (formerly blacklist.rules) is something
like 70K now, so managing a second list that HAS to contain similar matches
will be a real pain.

(BTW:  I can't wait until the 4.29.5 code is stable and I can have one list
entry for *@*.* and *@*, nice job!)
