=head1 NAME

Sendmail::AccessDB - An interface to the Sendmail access.db list

=head1 SYNOPSIS

 use Sendmail::AccessDB qw(spam_friend whitelisted);
 $friend_or_hater = spam_friend('[e-mail]');
 $whitelisted = whitelisted('[e-mail]');

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This module is designed so that users of the Sendmail::Milter module (or
other Sendmail programmers) can ascertain if a user has elected to whitelist
themselves as a "spam friend" (where there should be no spam filtering on
mail to them) or, where spam-filtering is not the default, but an option, where
certain receipients have been labeled as "spam haters"

=head1 USAGE

 use Sendmail::AccessDB qw(spam_friend);
 $friend_or_hater = spam_friend('[e-mail]');

Ordinarily, this will look for such things as "Spam:[e-mail]",
"Spam:user@", etc., in the /etc/mail/access.db file. There is an optional
second argument "Category", which could be used if you wanted to enable
specific checks, for example, if you wanted to customize down to a per-check
basis, you might use:

 $rbl_friend_or_hater = spam_friend('[e-mail]',
                                    'qualifier' => 'maps_rbl');
 $dul_friend_or_hater = spam_friend('[e-mail]',
                                    'qualifier' => 'maps_dul');

Caution should be taken when defining your own categories, as they may
inadvertantly conflict with Sendmail-defined categories.

 use Sendmail::AccessDB qw(whitelisted);
 $whitelisted = whitelisted('[e-mail]');
 $whitelisted_host = whitelisted('foo.example.com');
 $whitelisted_addr = whitelisted('192.168.1.123');

Would check for appropriate whitelisting entries in access.db. Some lookups
might be ambiguous, for example:

 $whitelisted = whitelisted('foobar');

where it is hard to know if that is supposed to be a hostname, or a sender.
whitelisted() accepts the 'type' argument, such as:

 $whitelisted = whitelisted('foobar','type'=>'hostname');
 $whitelisted = whitelisted('postmaster','type'=>'mail');

It's also possible to feed the qualifier argument, if necessary, for example,
to do:

 $whitelisted = whitelisted('host.example.com','type'=>'hostname',
                            'qualifier' => 'Connect');

which would check to see if this host has an OK flag set for the Connect
qualifier.

There is also the generic "lookup", which, at its simplest, takes a single
argument:

 $rc = lookup('host.example.com');

will do a lookup on host.example.com. But if you wanted to pay attention to
parent-domains, you might do:

 $rc = lookup('host.example.com', 'type'=>'hostname');

but if you wanted to find out if 'host.example.com', or any of its parent
domains ('example.com' and 'com'), had a value in the "MyQual" qualifier, you
might do:

 $rc = lookup('host.example.com','type'=>'hostname','qualifier'=>'MyQual');

which would look up, in order 'MyQual:host.example.com', 'MyQual:example.com',
and 'MyQual:com', returning the first (most specific) one found.

=head2 spam_friend

 Usage     : $friend_or_hater = spam_friend($recipient,
                                            ['qualifier' => $category])
 Purpose   : Consults the /etc/mail/access.db to check for spamfriendliness
 Returns   : 'FRIEND','HATER', or undef (which would mean default
             behavior for that site)
 Argument  : The recipient e-mail address and an optional qualifier if
             the default of 'Spam' is not desired.
 Throws    :
 Comments  :

=cut

sub spam_friend
{
    my $address = shift;
    my $qual = shift || 'Spam';
    return lookup($address,'qualifier'=>$qual,'type'=>'mail');
}

=head2 whitelisted

 Usage     : whitelisted($value)
 Purpose   : Determine if an e-mail address, hostname, or IP address is
             explicitly whitelisted, in that it contains an "OK" or "RELAY"
             value in the database.
 Returns   : 0/1, true or false as to whether the argument is whitelisted
 Argument  : Either an email-address (e.g., [e-mail]), an IP address
             (e.g., 10.200.1.230), or a hostname (e.g., mailhost.example.com)
             as well as 'type' and 'qualifer' arguments (see lookup for greater
             detail)
 Throws    :
 Comments  : The code makes a pretty good attempt to figure out what type
             of argument $value is, but it can be overriden using the 'type'
             qualifier.

    return ( (defined $lookup) and
	     ( ($lookup eq 'OK') or ($lookup eq 'RELAY') )
	     ) ? 1 : 0;
}

=head2 lookup

 Usage     : lookup ($lookup_key,
		     'type'=>{'mail','ip','hostname'} ,   [optional]
		     'qualifier'=>'qualifier'             [optional]
		     'file'=>'filename'                   [optional]
		     )
 Purpose   : Do a generic lookup on a $lookup_key in the access.db and
             return the value found (or undef if not)
 Returns   : value in access.db or undef if not found
 Argument  : $lookup_key - mandatory. 'type'=>mail/ip/hostname will cause
             lookups against all necessary lookups according to sendmail logic
             (for things like hostname lookups where subdomains inherit
             attributes of parent domains, etc.), 'qualifier'=>$q, where $q
             will be preprended to the beginning of all lookups, (e.g., $q =
             'Spam', lookup would be against 'Spam:lookup_value')
 Throws    :
 Comments  : If not using 'type', the 'qualifier' field can be mimicked by
             simply looking for 'Qualifier:lookup'.

=head2 _expand_ip, _expand_hostname, _expand_address

 Usage     : @expanded = _expand_ip($ip); # For example
 Returns   : Given an ip, hostname, or e-mail address, it will expand
             that into the "appropriate lookups" which sendmail would use
             (e.g., given '192.168.1.2', _expand_ip would return
             192.168.1.2, 192.168.1, 192.168, and 192)
 Argument  : The IP Address, hostname, or e-mail address to expand
