I had the same error message, different problem.

Basic problem: wrong folder for milter-greylist sock.

The correct folder for Fedora 9 is ''/var/run/milter-greylist''.

Some online documentation gives ''/var/milter-greylist''.

Error message in /var/log/maillog:
''/var/milter-greylist/milter-greylist.sock unsafe''.

sendmail.mc should have this line in it (among other things):

INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`greylist',
`S=local:/var/run/milter-greylist/milter-greylist.sock')

Seems to have helped.
