NCIDD.GREYLIST(5)

πŸ“¦ version 1.18, in fedora 43, fedora 44

✨ NAME ✨

ncidd.greylist β€” the greylist file for ncidd hangup πŸ’…


πŸŽ€ DESCRIPTION πŸŽ€

okay bestie so listen. the ncidd.greylist file is literally where all the numbers live that have already been put through the hangup-greylist extension. it's giving very much "the extension's personal diary" energy πŸ“–βœ¨

and here's the thing β€” this file is managed by the hangup-greylist extension itself, so you should not normally be editing it by hand, no cap. it's not a "you do you" situation, it's a "the extension does it, you don't" situation πŸ™ˆ

🚨 if you format it wrong, the extension may literally fail. not a vibe. do not do it.

each entry line has a phone number and a name recorded from the caller ID, plus an expiration time. that time limit is expressed in seconds since the epoch β€” yes, unix time, the classic πŸ•βœ¨

the format is similar to the one ncidd uses when it passes calls to the extension, so if that looks familiar to you, you're already slaying 🫢


there are three named fields πŸ’– and the field names and the field data are separated by asterisks. for example:

*NMBR*1234567890*NAME*Fred Jones*EXPIRES*1584896614

see how it's laid out? *NMBR* then the digits, *NAME* then the name, *EXPIRES* then the time. iconic. periodt 🌸
