what about option to call external app to check that out? One could 
easily craft small tool to look into SQL database to decide if
we shall or shall not greylist.

Generally, I'd love to see the way to feed spamdyke with stuff from
external apps for any lists or even configuration file.

It appears clearer to me now, but I think it could read a little better.

"This test only attempts to get at least one IP address from the name. It
does not require the rDNS name's IP address to match the remote server's IP
address."
might be replaced with
"This is done by using the rDNS name to lookup a corresponding IP address.
It does not require the corresponding address to be the same as the remote
server's IP address, only that the rDNS name correspond to an IP address (or
more specifically, a type A DNS record) of some sort."

I think I could make those read a bit better. Let me know if you'd like me
to take a stab at it and we can work it out off list.

Look for this in 4.1.0 or so.

Small suggestion for 4.0 -> to add ALLOWED_GRAYLISTED log entry
not just ALLOWED for any message that passes. Having ALLOWED_GRAYLISTED

ALLOWED I'd need to parse logs myself...

I could do that if it would be useful.  Now is the time for changes like 
this, since version 4.0 won't be backwards compatible anyway.  What 
about changing the log message for other reasons too?  For example, 
ALLOWED_WHITELISTED_IP, ALLOWED_WHITELISTED_SENDER, etc.

[spamdyke-users] large ip blacklist file

Sam,

There is mention of techniques for handling a large IP blacklist file,
but I do not seem to be able to find documentation on how to create and
mange a large list in other than multiple files.  Should I be using a
directory structure, and if so, where can I read about how to do it?

You can use tcpserver or tcpsvd to handle a large IP blacklist. They use
cdbs (constant databases), which are fast. Spamdyke needn't even be started
for blacklisted connections. (Of course, this has the drawback that you
don't get to see whose mail you're blocking.)

spamdyke doesn't have a way to read blacklisted IPs from a directory 
structure the way it does for blacklisted rDNS names.  However, the IP 
files can use ranges, netmasks and network numbers to make them smaller.

Doesn't it already log "DENIED GREYLISTED" when it greylists an address,
then when it is sent again, and passes the greylist test, it logs
"ALLOWED"...  Doesn't that already identify greylisted e-mails?  Or, are we
talking about logging the fact that e-mails are allowed AND have already
been greylisted?  Which, if you greylist all domains, would be every e-mail,
right?

The "ALLOWED_WHITELISTED_*" items might be useful, but I don't see where
logging allowed greylisted e-mails makes sense...  In fact, "Allowed
Greylist" seems kind of contradictory to me...  :-)  Just my .02, which,
with the state of the dollar, is worth even less today than last week.  :-)

"ALLOWED_GRAYLISTED" could be useful if graylisting isn't active for all 
domains.  It would mean that the graylisting filter had checked for the 
existence of a graylist file for that connection (and found one).  I 
agree it should be possible to match an "ALLOWED" with a previous 
"DENIED_GRAYLISTED" but that could involve searching log files from 
multiple days if the remote server doesn't attempt redelivery very quickly.
