[Mimedefang] Greylisting database question

I just implimented on our site the greylisting example as posted to the 
list by Steven Rocha, which seems to be working.  I notice though that the 
filename of where the database is stored is 
/var/spool/MIMEDefang/.greylistdb, but I have /var/spool/MIMEDefang  
mounted as a ramdisk.  I assumed that this isn't a good thing, because 
whenever my system is reset the database would be lost and would have to 
be rebuilt, so I created a new directory off of /var/spool and stored the 
database file there.  Was that the right thing to do?
