To allow SELinux to do what you want you have to do the following:

1) Put SELinux into permissive mode
    $ setenforce permissive

2) Get milter-greylist to write to the file
    ….
    
3) create custom policy by grep’ng the audit log (note this creates a .pp and .te file)
   $ grep greylist /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M [policy_name]

4) Look at what is going to happen
   $ cat [policy_name].te

My guess is you’ll see something like this at the bottom of the file:
#============= greylist_milter_t ==============
allow greylist_milter_t var_log_t:file open;

5) Implement policy
   $ semodule -i [policy_name].pp

Be sure to have 'policycoreutils-python’ installed.

Also, you’ll need 300-400k free to update the semodules
