I think he's being sarcastic.  Create two greylist.conf files, one for 
normal greylisting and one with "acl whitelist default" at the very top. 
   Use a cron job to rotate them at the appropriate times of day.  The 
milter will detect the change and change its behavior.  It's cleaner 
than mucking with the sendmail configuration.
