Does anybody have sensible numbers about that? On my relatively small server, I usually have between 0 and 40 messages in the deferred queue. Of those, up to 1 or 2 are due to greylisting. All others are because recipients have crap mailservers or nameservers. As madduck said: either you are small, so your mailserver isn't loaded anyway, or you're big, so the additional load from greylisting isn't noticeable, or you're a spammer. Hmm. Discussing mail problems on irc while answering mailing list mail in a mail setup related mail thread mail confuses me mail. can't mail stop mail. cheers -- mail -- Perl: The Swiss Army Chainsaw
