When I make this change I do get "OK" rather than "FAILED" but ...

is this what I want?

<snip>
$ ps wwwaux| grep greylistd
105      11993  7.1  0.7 10984 3920 pts/0    S    12:09   
0:00 /usr/bin/python2.3 /usr/sbin/greylistd
root     12001  0.0  0.1  4612  648 pts/0    S+   12:09   0:00 grep 
greylistd
$


I thought I'd want to see greylistd running, not being called by a
running version of python. If this is correct then I'm seriously
confused as to how the daemon runs. But that's okay.

So you're saying this is correct?

Thanks.
