Bug#470188: RFH: milter-greylist -- GreyList milter for sendmail

2008-03-09 Thread Cord Beermann
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

I request assistance with maintaining the milter-greylist package.

The package description is:
 milter-greylist is a stand-alone milter written in C that implements the
 greylist filtering method, as proposed by Evan Harris.
 .
 Grey listing works by assuming that unlike legitimate MTA, spam engines will
 not retry sending their junk mail on a temporary error. The filter will
 always temporarily reject mail on a first attempt, and to accept it after
 some time has elapsed.
 .
 If spammers ever try to resend rejected messages, we can assume they will not
 stay idle between the two sends (if they do, the spam problem would just be
 solved). Odds are good that the spammer will send a mail to an honey pot
 address and get blacklisted in several real-time distributed black list
 before the second attempt.

Bug#470188: RFH: milter-greylist -- GreyList milter for sendmail

2008-03-10 Thread Michael Mende
Hello Cord,

I guess I can help.
Attached are some patches against Debian's current version fixing 4 of 5
bugs.

I have built milter-greylist successfully having these patches but were
not able to test the --dnsrbl stuff very hard. But thiis might happen
after setting up my own local RBL.

Are you also interested in getting help for upgrading to v4.0? - One
patch is for debian/watch letting uscan show newer versions than 3.0,
too :)

 Michael Mende

Bug#470188: RFH: milter-greylist -- GreyList milter for sendmail

2008-06-09 Thread Paul Martin
I'm willing to become co-maintainer. I've used sendmail since 1990, and work
relies milter-greylist. I stumbled on this bug whilst looking to see if
anyone had raised a wishlist bug for 4.0.
