[Sqlgrey-users] optout question

[Beast <be...@i6...>]

Some of my user did not want their email delayed, so I have to exclude 
them from sqlgrey.

These step is required:
1. edit sqlgrey.conf

optmethod = optout

2. add "sp...@my..." in optout_email table.

3. restart sqlgrey.

Is that correct?

What if we can edit file instead of direct modification to database?
Just a suggestion.

That was a possibility... but I wanted to allow mail admins to easily 
integrate optout/optin into their admin infrastructure. An ISP should be 
able to add a switch somewhere in its user interface to allow its user 
to decide themselves if they want the greylisting. This is far easier if 
optin/optout decision is stored in database.

Checking files for modification is time-consuming too (especially when 
they become large). SQLgrey only does this for the "local" whitelists 
which should:
- change rarely,
- remain quite small as their content is fed to the main whitelists upon 
notification on this list.

If you don't want to develop a web-based interface, editing database 
entries is rather straightforward if you install a generic web-based 
database admin tool like phpPgAdmin (PostgreSQL) or phpMyAdmin (MySQL) 
(I'm not sure for SQLite but I believe there is an admin package out 
there too).

Yes, this is correct. After a change of the config file, you have to
restart sqlgrey. After that you can add entries to the optin/out tables at
any time without restarting sqlgrey.
