Just so that everyone is aware, greylisting is now enabled on the vServer
where the mailing lists go through ... not that I expect to hear of any,
but if you notice any problems, please let me know ...

Keep in mind that some MTA's are flat-out broken in such a way that
greylisting == no email. At a minimum the owner email aliases should
bypass greylisting (or there needs to be *some* contact email that
doesn't go through greylisting).

I've moved over to using sqlgrey, which, so far, appears to be working
great (this one at least auto-whitelists) ... by deafult, it comes with
whitelists for everything that are "known" broken, which is another nice
feature ...

Is this something we should write a blurb on the mailinglist info page
on the web about? Considering it'll delay people submission a bit the
first time they post frmo a new IP?
(Or perhaps that delay will just be drowned by the other general delay
of the lists?)

I've temporarily turned it off anyway ... need to figure out a better way
of doing it ... 'submissions' aren't a big issue, as the delay for
greylisting is minimal ... the problem is that majordomo has feature in it
that auto-unsubscribes ppl from the list if their email bounces over N
times ... so, if we send out an email through pgsql-general to 1000
subscribers, and 100 bounce back (reasonably normal), those 100 are all
"new" to the greylisting system, since the return addresses are all
*individual* (<listname>+<unique identifier>@postgresql.org) ... server
load wasn't being affected, but the mail queue on the MX servers were
being bogged down fast, since they were trying to resend *through* the MXs
...
Need to get all the MXs setup first, *then* the main server, so that the
MXs see it as the 'second attempt' and bounce it straight through better
...
Will let y'all know once I have this setup a *wee* bit better to deal with
majordomo's "ACKs" ...

I would say the above will probably be the case.
