"""
Munin plugin that monitors the greyfix triplet database.
Author: Tom Hendrikx <tom@whyscream.net> 2011-08-05

This plugin monitors the Greyfix greylisting tool for Postfix.
It creates a nice overview of the number of triplets in the greyfix database,
dividing the database population in configurable ages.

For more information about greyfix: http://trac.kim-minh.com/greyfix/

Installation
============

To install, create a symlink to the plugin in the munin plugin directory:
$ ln -s /path/to/plugin/greyfix /etc/munin/plugins/greyfix

Configuration
=============

There are some settings that can be tweaked by adding statements to the
munin-node config:

[greyfix]
# run plugin as the same user as postfix does
user nobody
# path to greyfix binary (default: /usr/sbin/greyfix)
env.greyfix /usr/local/sbin/greyfix
# the length of each graph step in days (default: 7)
env.step_size 3
# the number of steps to graph (default: 11)
env.num_steps 47
# graph the greylisted triplets separate from the whitelisted ones (default: yes)
env.greylist_step no

Please note that the last step has no end date, so it includes all triplets
older than the second last step. I.e., the defaults (as named above) create a
graph that shows 10 steps of one week each, and one last step for everything
older than 10 weeks. Also, the separate greylist step is not considered
when applying num_steps.
