Yup, I was staring at this section of the manpage.  I added the
following to my greylist.conf:

sm_macro "POP relay" "popauth" "OK"
acl whitelist sm_macro "POP relay"

and it didn't work.  Syslog says (from an IP number I know is in
the popauth.db):

NOQUEUE: connect from pool-70-16-68-217.port.east.verizon.net [70.16.68.217]
Oct 17 13:28:54 jasper sendmail-in[19415]: [ID 801593 mail.info] k9HHSkWa019415: POPAUTH RELAY 70.16.68.217
Oct 17 13:28:54 jasper milter-greylist: [ID 751384 mail.info] k9HHSkWa019415: addr pool-70-16-68-217.port.east.verizon.net[70.16.68.217] from <testuser@...> to <jaearick@...> delayed for 00:05:00 (ACL 141)

Do I need to modify my sendmail.cf too, to add some kind of 
"O Milter.macros" line?  Or do I need to modify my popauth.db
file to say "ipnumber WHITE" instead of "ipnumber OK"?  What's
the trick here?
