I wonder if it makes sense to tempfail at helo if you've never seen the
relay before, and then do regular greylisting in a subsequent phase? On a
busy server, that could cut a lot of load.

Is Novell doing anything to fix that? How hard is it to identify these
MTA's when they come knocking? Can they be spotted in Received lines?
