Since what? If it's stateless, what will it compare the 300 seconds to?
Database files in /var/lib/postgrey/ (at least on Debian/Ubuntu).
Yes, as I have said all along. My problem is the strings and numbers in there
make no immediate sense, hence why I have now turned to reading the Perl code
as there is apparently no ready-made tool for outputting the database.
I think the main problem will probably be that postgrey does not
record anything unique such as the email's message ID, but only the
sender, recipient, and IP address of the sending mail server.
Which is all I want to know.
So you could see an email from Alice to Bob that has been greylisted,
and then maybe 30 minutes later an email from Alice to Bob that passes.
But you can't be sure that is the same email, or just a second one that
has been sent later.
As long as it gets through, I'm happy.
Thanks
