You have at least two problems.

You didn't say what MTA you are using. The fix for this depends on the MTA.
If you are running postfix then
http://www.postfix.org/MILTER_README.html
may be helpful. An example:

# Add _ for spamass-milter per http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=510665
# Add i because spamass-milter complains, but to no avail.
milter_connect_macros = i j {daemon_name} v _
# {if_name} (recommended, not in source)

This is probably your real issue. It looks like milter-greylist cannot
talk to spamassassin. Make sure the milter-greylist user/group can
read/write the spamassassin socket.

> It looks like the milter-greylist process the message fist and then the spamd.

this should be controlled by your MTA config. So if you are going to
filter via spamassassin via milter-greylist, why are you running a
spamass-milter?

> And the message " Could not retrieve sendmail macro "i" ", how can I resolve this?


FWIW, I decided not to base greylisting on spam scores. Basically, I
greylist for a long time (many hours) for hosts in any kind of
blocklist, don't greylist hosts in DNSWL, and greylist most others for 2
minutes. This tends to keep my system from spending cycles processing a
lot of junk.
