[Mimedefang] greylisting does it still work?

[Wayne]

So did you setup a modified greylist for your filter_relay that rejects all 
the hosts that you have never seen? Then you add that hostname to a database 
table and  then the next time they connect after 10 seconds you let them in. 
How long do you leave them in your allow list?

It's still effective here.

We also reject previously unseen hosts for 10 seconds in
filter_relay. This together with a very short greet pause stops a
lot of connections in an early stage.
