I think spamdyke implements greylisting by sending a 421 Temporary
Failure code on first connection. That might be what's happening here.

Greylisting is off by default, but if you have it turned on you could
set `graylist-level` to `none` to turn it off. If you want to keep it on
but just fix it for that specific domain, you should be able to
configure exceptions by adding appropriate `graylist-exception-ip-entry`
or `graylist-exception-rdns-entry` entries.

Incidentally, I tend to favor disabling greylisting these days. The
original intention was to protect against spam clients that couldn't
recognize the 421 error as indicating a temporary condition: they'd try
once, get an error code, and go away. But from what I see in my own
server logs, many -- most? -- spam clients these days just keep
attempting redeliveries until either something gets delivered or they
hit some threshold number of retries. Greylisting is no help against those.
