Hi Gordon, thanks for the great courier filter! I have been delaying
adding greylisting to our server due to complaints about email delays.
But I will give it a try if/when you add the auto-whitelist feature.
What will be your criteria for adding a sender/recipient pair? Will
they have to send N number of successful messages? Will there be a way
to dump out the auto-whitelist in a human readable format to see what
the filter is up to? How would you handle expiring entries from the list?

Thanks!

-Nathan

Yeah, but the original greylist whitepaper recommends against
whitelisting email addresses or domains, as they're easily forged. I'm
also not fond of adding the complexity of allowing for module-specific
whitelists. People will do it anyway, so I integrated his extra scripts
rather than tear that feature out.

I actually rather like the idea of an auto-whitelist that operates on
sender/recipient pairs. I'll probably write one up.
