The way spamd works your message does not get handled by a real smtp daemon until it clears greylisting, in contrast to the various greylisting MTA plugins (postgrey which lives inside postfix adds a rather verbose message to headers IIRC). bsdly.net runs spamd, so studying your logs or inbox to fish out any reference to the message I'm answering now will produce the answer you are looking for. Did the delivery of this message produce anything you would rather not have your friends or customers to see? > FWIW, this is a sincere question.

I would not want to make any sweeping assertions without studying your setup, but I suspect you are either bit by side effects of a badly maintained blacklist or the senders whos mail isn't getting delivered misconfigured mail servers which do not retry properly.
