The traditional Sendmail would retry either every 15 or every 30 minutes. This would almost always be seen as the command line setting as sendmail -q30m. But this may have changed in recent Sendmail releases. I just checked a stock RHEL4 system and the queue retry time by default there is 1h. So from such a system a greylisting would delay the initial message by 1h. Subsequent messages would pass without delay. Bob
