It helps a lot, because you quickly build up a list of servers for companies you correspond with often, and for large domains like hotmail.com and aol.com. Suppose you correspond with 10 people at CompanyA. Once *one* person has passed the greylist test, all 10 of them can communicate with any one of you without any greylisting delays. > Perhaps a distributed greylist DB? > Sort of like a DNSBL but with white-listing.
