Hi,

I am trying out the postscreen server - and am very impressed so far. My original interest was in greylisting - so I have the deep protocol tests turned on so that the temporary failure code 45x is returned for non-whitelisted clients.

During my testing - I noticed that the small trickle of spam that still makes it past postscreen reattempts immediately after a 45x with no delay, whereas genuine mail will wait at least a few minutes before reattempting after a 45x.

So - my question - do we know if it will be possible to enforce a delay after the 45x before a reconnect is accepted? I have seen references to a postcreen_greylist_threshold parameter in a postscreen strawman document, and am wondering whether this, or some other configuration will allow the exclusion of clients who respond instantly to a 45x?

Best regards,
Craig
