Hi all

Have installed "postgrey" but trying to prove whether it is working.
Installed RHEL5 box and with " yum install postgrey " ... details below.

Have run the command below but it just hangs

# /usr/sbin/postgreyreport --show_tries --dbdir=/var/spool/postfix/postgrey


How can I verify it is working?

Summary: Postfix Greylisting Policy Server

Description:
Postgrey is a Postfix policy server implementing greylisting. When a request
for delivery of a mail is received by Postfix via SMTP, the triplet CLIENT_IP /
SENDER / RECIPIENT is built. If it is the first time that this triplet is
seen, or if the triplet was first seen less than 5 minutes, then the mail gets
rejected with a temporary error. Hopefully spammers or viruses will not try
again later, as it is however required per RFC.
