[Greylist-users] qmail implementation - correct this time, I hope

I wrote a wrapper for the "C" greylisting code I wrote for exim so it will 
work for qmail. I didn't have to change a single line of the code I used for 
exim but just provided a "main" function and some glue. With my code and your 
qmail patch, you should be able to do greylisting with qmail.

You can download the code for qmail from 
http://digitaleveryware.com/projects/greylisting/

Unpack the tar file and type make. It will build a qmail-envelope-scanner 
program that you can use. If the TCPREMOTEIP environment variable contains 
the ip address of the sending MTA, and the program is called with the 1st 
argument set to the sender addres and the 2nd argument set to the receivers 
address it should work. The return codes are as you discussed in the previous 
emails.

I don't have qmail so the only testing I did was from the command line. From 
the command line it works fine and modifies the mysql database exactly as it 
should. It also writes the gory details to /tmp/greylist_debug.txt  by 
default.

Of course you also need a working qmail with the patch.

Good Luck, let me know how it works.
