Some variants of broken smtp configurations will choke on greylisting, and spamd doesn't really have much in the way of smtp smarts beyond what it needs in order to waste spammers' time. If somebody important is unable to deal with greyliting, you will probably need to whitelist them. And yes, those toy relay checkers that do not check if the message gets delivered do tend to think spamd is an open relay. That and some spammers' tricks will swell your greylist a bit from time to time, but I don't really see that as much of a problem in real life. - P -- Peter N. M.
