Newer greylisting daemon for Postfix

for postfix, frankensteined from various bits of code to make this only require *one* instance running (not several). uses DBD::SQLite, a free local disk based SQL engine (CPAN will install all you need, no daemons needed). This is what I'm currently using as it is lower weight on the server.

Btw, sqlite rocks. It is worth looking at. You may not have a use for it today, but you may in the future. It is free, bundleable, requires no server, default now in PHP; and easy to install for perl (just install DBD::SQLite, done!).

Some mail changes afoot

Web mail now has a "Filters" command. SquirrelMail will let you manage server side filtering. Now, you can easily say "any mail that matches this, put it into this new folder..". You *should* do this if X-Spam-Status: says "Yes" (I'll try and make this happen automatically for the people I am converting - most everyone did not use procmail for much).

I will be converting most users on my box to Sieve scripts; a few power users on my system I'll leave with procmail. I'll contact you guys individually to see if you want to convert over to Sieve or not.
