For #1, you can do this by changing your response to include a fixed blocking time related to your GreyList mfilter setup. This is mostly an administrator, sysop level work requirement. For #2, that is more software work on the sender-MTA where you parse/extract the time hint, if any, from the temporary reject responses and pass that TIME to your MTA Send/Queuing logic and algorithm. So this requires code change most likely, code developers, systems folks, even administrators. Except for the response template change, it wouldn't have anything to do with a GREYLIST mfilter, shim, callout, blackbox true/false process, handling of incoming calls. It is about the mail sender who is getting hit with other greylisting server forcing delays. Its about improving SENDER QUEUE/RETRY LOGIC and minimizing delivery delays in dealing with a current reality and wide existence of Greylisting Servers. All good and practical ideas to consider if delays is something you wish to address associated to forced temporary reject block delays. Most systems have a progressive retry logic where delays increase or vary with more tries. This proposed method has proven to shown over time to reduce all delays to the bare minimum number of retries which is two with no extra time delays than necessary. > I couldn't implement this even if I thought it were a good idea. Your reasoning would be insightful. Would there be a technical problem, a security problem and/or feasibility problem? -- HLS
