Not by default. It shouldn't be too hard to add a "mask" feature
though (I'd recommend making it generic-ish, so you just specify the
number of bits to include...).
yes for my, i do not have any skill in perl, but i study to learn.
The Net::CIDR::Lite package makes very easy to work with lists of CIDRs.
As a shorter term solution you might be able to just disable using
"remote_ip" at all - by default it uses sender and recipient
addresses, too.
Ok, and is not too weak greylisting without IP check ?
Greylisting is of relatively little utility these days. But, given that
bots do not retry, and that bots usually forge senders all the time,
ignoring source IP won't damage greylisting effectiveness very much.
