Indeed, the current Alioth config only greylists those hosts that have some kind of 'problem', like no reverse DNS entry or are featured on some kind of RBL. Any decent mailserver is allowed right through. Any indecent mailserver is told to wait just a little bit, but is still allowed to send its mail.

Sure, we still need to be looking for new measures for when greylisting stops to work, but that doesn't exclude using it now in any way. Thijs
