        This is what I currently do (as of now, 14:20 local)
and I don't even greylist, all I do is load the white table and
those go to the real mailserver if I'm on the backup box. I don't
even run spamd - so what If I only talk to familiar people while
I'm failed onto my backup machine. but..

        Not while it's running. if spamd is stopped yes..


        but...

        I'm currently going in to test some new stuff that
will fix this problem. so as theo said. wait a few days..
