Just to clarify, I didn't intend this as a major criticism of
greylisting.  In the context of our discussion, we were talking about
spam senders in the from_awl table -- those are the relatively rare ones
that do actually retry.  In combination with judicious rbls, etc, they
have not been a significant enough factor to make me any less thrilled
with the efficiency of greylisting.
