It says 
451 4.7.1 Greylisting in action, please come back in 00:05:00

But the sender SMTP server only understands the codes: 451 4.7.1
451 means Requested action aborted: local error in processing. 
4.x.x means Persistent Transient Failure
x.7.x means Security or Policy Status
x.7.1 means Delivery not authorized, message refused

You can change the codes by patching the source (in milter-greylist.c)
and rebuilding.
