Bug#272753: RFP: sqlgrey -- Greylisting implementation for Postfix that uses SQL



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

* Package name    : sqlgrey
  Version         : 1.1

  Description     : Greylisting implementation for Postfix

SQLgrey is a postfix policy service implementing a greylisting policy.

SQLgrey is a fork of the postgrey greylisting service for Postfix.

SQLgrey is written in Perl and uses DBI to access an SQL database.

SQLgrey needs:

  * Perl,
  * DBI,
  * Net::Server::Multiplex,
  * MySQL, PostgreSQL or SQLite.

The main drawback of greylisting as it was done by postgrey was the
delaying of legit emails.

This is nearly solved by the auto-white-listing mechanisms built into
SQLgrey :

  * When a sender has been seen coming from a given IP address, it is
    automatically accepted when coming again from the same IP address.
  * When several senders from the same domain have been seen coming
    from the same IP address, senders from the same domain are accepted
    when coming from the same IP address.
