In a business setting greylisting is generally unacceptable. Managers believe that someone, somewhere on the globe, would send a request for a million dollar conract, and the first to answer (the site not using greylist) would win. If said manager works an avarage 8 hours a day, the probability to lose same contract due to time zone differences would be based on 16 hours, where greylist is at most one hour But managers understand only the statistics that an excel sheet displays :) Wolfgang Hamann >> >> Having run greylisting for a couple of years now I have to say that for >> me, for the most part, it's not even noticeable since the majority of my >> email turns up immediately. >> >> Derek >> >> >>
