Very different from the original blanket claim that "Yahoo's SMTP
mailers are
unable to handle a standard SMTP error 4xx, if they get one they abort
the transmission and return the message to the sender"


And yet Googles server farm has no problem with greylist-milter.

Not quite - Google's retry may come from another server in a different
range.

if it did then mail from Google would be delayed significantly, like
12-24 hours for example.

.. and because the ranges can change (over time) I tend to stay away
from Greylisting, despite its effectiveness I am paranoid about false
positives.


I will say flatly you don't understand how greylist-milter operates
to make such a statement.  I'm not going to post 4 paragraphs about
it here, you can look up how it works elsewhere.  But just be aware
your statement is nonsensical, like answering "I never liked the
taste of blackberries" when someone says "the sky is a pretty blue today"
