Hello,

I might have a problem with the smtp_connection cache.
Regarding documentation, the cache is enabled on demand by default.

I found a peer site, which is also driven by postfix, with uses greylisting.
I have some 3000 mails to send to this particular server, which starts the 
session
by greylisting my server. Since postfix uses the smtp_connection_cache by 
default,
it reuses the connection which receives one greylisting temp fail after the 
other.
This seems to triggers the $smtpd_hard_error_limit on the other site. My server
continues to use now dead connection until the cache limits take effect.

I tend to assume, that this is a bug and maybe a configurable amount of errors 
should
trigger the sending postfix to abandon a connection.

Did i miss any configuration options here or do you agree?

Yours,

--Thomas
