Selective greylisting

2007-10-19 by Arjun Datta

Hi,
My Setup:
2.6.20-1.2962.fc6
milter-greylist-3.0-1
milter-greylist-debuginfo-3.0-1
sendmail-8.13.8-2
I have noticed that my milter-greylist seems to on occasion selectively greylist senders.
For example:
My domain is xyz.com and has 2 users user1 and user2.
If sender@... sends an email addressed to both user1@... and user2@xyz.com and both tuples are not whitelisted, the first time milter-greylist will tell the sending server to try again later as greylisting is in progress.
The second time the sending server tries to send the email, milter-greylist will let the email through to user1 and autowhitelist the tuple but will greylist user2 again.
I've checked that the sending server has the same IP on all three occasions.
Regards,
Arjun Datta
