Have you tried whitelisting these servers:

That list by policy only includes 'shared queue' servers on blocks larger than /24 (the greylisting software written by the list compiler usually masks the last byte of the address anyway). If your spamd box regularly receives mail from users at large sites that use different machines for outbound and inbound mail, where a shared queue is involved, and don't have enough users yourself to ensure that the most common of these are already whitelisted, greylisting software other than spamd might be a better choice. As luck would have it these are also often the sites with crappy retry cycles delaying mail multiple hours. But then, I wouldn't want to run a full mta on the small hardware I usually run spamd on sitting in front of mail servers, and larger sites that are less affected by this problem probably don't want to devote full mta resources to their spam senders either, so it's good that there are both lightweight and more featureful choices.
