[Mimedefang] Greylisting problem with the default confTO_COMMAND

This whole section is advisory, being full of "SHOULD" entries, rather than
"MUST" entries - see section 1.3.2 for details of the terminology.

In addition, it has been superceded by technology, as the idea of waiting at
least five minutes for a remote server to send a command is now simply ludicrous
- in this age, anything which takes more than about five seconds can be assumed
to have failed, and since we then give up on them and they try again, a
temporary failure of an intervening connection is not good cause for us to keep
a port open for five minutes in the vain hope that it will come back up again
and also be able to carry on from where it left off.

Best Wishes,

Paul.
