I have set up the greylist policy, exactly according to the postfix docs, but 
nothing seems to be getting generated in /var/mta - no database that is.

When reloading I get this.

postconf: warning: /usr/local/etc/postfix/main.cf: unused parameter: 
greylist_time_limit=3600

However, the documents say to put it in.

# Greylist policy server
#
greypolicy    unix  -       n       n       -       0       spawn
  user=nobody:mail argv=/opt/local/bin/perl 
/usr/local/libexec/postfix/greylist.pl
#


and in main.cf

5 /etc/postfix/main.cf <http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html>:
 6     greylist_time_limit 
<http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html#transport_time_limit> = 3600
 7     smtpd_recipient_restrictions 
<http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html#smtpd_recipient_restrictions> =
 8         ... 
 9         reject_unauth_destination 
<http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html#reject_unauth_destination> 
10         check_policy_service 
<http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html#check_policy_service> 
unix:private/greylist
11         ...
12     # smtpd_policy_service_request_limit 
<http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html#smtpd_policy_service_request_limit> = 1

But ok, I remove the greylist_time_limit = 3600 and proceed, but there is no 
greylist.db being generated?

Is greylisting a good thing? 
 What am I doing wrong?
thanks
