Now available at http://projects.puremagic.com/greylisting/source/

Updates in Version 0.02:

  - Added a check to bypass greylisting checks if the delivering mail host
    has been authenticated in some manner with sendmail directly.

  - Changed the code to allow for setting $delay_mail_secs to zero in order
    to learn new relationships without hindering mail deliveries.  Useful
    for new installtions, but should only be used temporarily.

  - Added another table to the dbdef.sql file describing a table that is
    exactly the same as the main relaytofrom table, but with a different
    name, for use as a reporting table.

  - Added a db_maintenance.pl script that can be easily included in a
    a crontab to move expired records from the main table to the new
    reporting table.  This will facilitate keeping the main running
    table to a manageable size without impacting the ability to generate
    statistic.

  - whitelist_ip.txt is now provided to seed new databases with a few common
    mail hosts that have software that isn't robust and has problems with
    greylisting.

  - Changed default time limits for initial mail delay and retry window to
    58 minutes and 5 hours respectively, from 1 hour and 4 hours.
