After some chatter inside MAAWG and on the ietf-smtp mailing list, I've started an outline for a BCP on the practice of greylisting.  The main purpose is to explain what it is, discuss the pros and cons of its variants, and give some recommendations for implementation and configuration for a few example installations and policies.

The draft (which is currently only an outline) is here: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-kucherawy-greylisting-bcp/

Comments welcome.
