I am also very surprise with the effectivness of greylisting, but I am
not so sure how long greylisting will be effektiv, if in future many 
servers use this trick, spammer will improve their spam software, 
and this software will track any temporary failure, and will try to send
spams 1 hour or 1 day later with the same triplet but maybe with another
spam contents (so it is not listed in dcc,razor or pyzor). I hope 
this will not be the case, but I am not so optimistic.
