It seems to me that grey listing could be useful for small non time critical email servers, such as hobbyist setups, but for business, grey listing is not the way to go.
Indeed. We should always remember that our workloads are *not* the only ones out there. There are many different kinds.
Greylisting with postgrey might even work for us, after a teething period of building up the necessary (and rather large) necessary whitelist of sending servers.
I might even do it if I didn't feel I was being compared side-by-side with WindstreamHosting, who delivered neither spam nor delays nor noticeable false positives. The gods only know how they manage that.
But I'm learning. And I've gotten some very helpful posts from members of this list today, both on the list and privately. I should be able to do this without ugly hacks like greylisting.
That said, for my own home use, I'm perfectly fine with ugly hacks. I do them all the time.
I've had the whole place done over with "Ugly Hack" wallpaper, It's great. :-)
