"racl whitelist spf pass" is syntax as of version > 4.1 of milter-greylist.
The advantage of this version is:
"racl greylist spf self delay 1h" which handles those "+all" spammers -
that was not possible to do before.

I agree the volume of junk that passes SPF is increasing but it was you
who correctly said, that those who passes the SPF test would likely to
resend anyway -> so in either case, it is no use to greylist them. Same
is also true for those who are willing to use STARTTLS encryption -
those senders use a proper MTA so why should I bother and greylist them?
Ok if you use dnsrbl it make a sense - as you get some time, but
otherwise it is useless

Moreover I still thing the vast majority of spam is from infected
computers - and here has the greylisting something to say.

As of the mail farms - I said the they tend to fight with recipients
that use greylisting - they do not use greylisting themself.
