Ie. When one of my users sends an  email from [EMAIL PROTECTED] to

the chance that a reply from [EMAIL PROTECTED] to [EMAIL PROTECTED] gets
delayed by the greylist code.

There's no guarantee that a domain's MX is the same addressed used for outbound mail. The larger the domain, the less likely that will be true, esp. if mail is outsourced to an ISP or a hosting provider.

Another approach is to use a wildcard greylist entry that ignores the IP address but causes the system to record the actual IP when a new message is seen.
