The following text is plastered over the postscreen(8) manpage and
over the POSTSCREEN_README file.

   The  optional "after 220 server greeting" tests involve postscreen(8)'s
   built-in SMTP protocol engine. When these tests succeed,  postscreen(8)
   adds  the client to the temporary whitelist, but it cannot not hand off
   the "live" connection to a Postfix SMTP server process in the middle of
   a session.  Instead, postscreen(8) defers attempts to deliver mail with
   a 4XX status, and waits for the client to disconnect.  When the  client
   connects  again, postscreen(8) will allow the client to talk to a Post-
   fix SMTP server process (provided that the  whitelist  status  has  not
   expired).   postscreen(8)  mitigates  the  impact of this limitation by
   giving the "after 220 server greeting" tests a long expiration time.

It is really hard to miss, if one bothers to read.

        Wietse
