Any reasonable interpretation (IMO) of the relevant parts of RFC5321 and RFC2821 means that greylisting is well within the protocol specs. That did however not stop people from claiming otherwise, and it was a bit disappointing back in 2008 to find that the update did not provide even clearer language. All water under the bridge soonish now, it seems. - P -- Peter N. M.
