it certainly does. unfortunately, in practice, one of the
prime advantages of greylisting -- the fact that it will never
block 'real' mail -- turns out, um, not to be true. there are so many
standards-noncompliant MTAs out there that greylisting does block
real mail. (this is one of the things that makes me crazy.)

(we still use it, of course.)
