Hi Alex,

Bumping up the spamd(8) greyexp time to 2-4 days works well (on 5.6):

spamd_flags='-G 25:48:864 ...'

greyexp is 4 hours by default.

Unless the same sending server in the pool retries within greyexp hours,
it will not be whitelisted.

Increasing it to 2+ days works for gmail, yahoo, hotmail, etc....

It is slow to start with, but once a host is whitelisted, it just works.

Cheers.
