Thanks for the great discussion.
I just finished my last tests on my mail server - which now does
Greylisting! I'm using a simple perl script and a few added lines to my
Postfix configurations. All in all a fairly simple addition to my other
anti-spam tools.

Um, Jon, greylisting... great! But, I'm not so sure I'd trust it to
a random example script. I'd very much recommend using either one
of postgrey[1] or gld[2] (grey listing daemon). I've heard of major performance
problems with implementing greylisting in a hap-hazard way and I know both
of those daemons have worked hard to solve problems like that (and a random
script off a website almost certainly hasn't).
Cheers,
Tanner
