That can't be related. For each stage, each milter is called until one
of them rejects or tempfail. Else the stage succeed. If milter-greylist
says a mail should go in, that won't prevent another milter to reject
it.

milter-rcptfilter is an ACL based on recipients, it can help you tossing
mail to invalid users, if this is the problem you fixed with MIMEDefang
(I'm not sure I understood everything).

Somehow it was related to the milter options...

INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`mimedefang', `S=inet:33333@localhost, F=T, 
T=S:600s;R:600s;E:10m')

INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`greylist', 
`S=local:/var/milter-greylist/milter-greylist.sock, F=T, 
T=S:600s;R:600s;E:10m')
define(`confMILTER_MACROS_CONNECT', `j, {if_addr}')
dnl # define(`confMILTER_MACROS_HELO', `{verify}, {cert_subject}')
dnl # define(`confMILTER_MACROS_ENVFROM', `i, {auth_authen}')
dnl # define(`confMILTER_MACROS_ENVRCPT', `{greylist}')

As soon as I commented out the not realy needed options, MIMEDefang did work 
as expected again. I'll test which of the options broke MIMEDefang later :)
