	I did, of course, assume this was not the case - for whatever reason 
(stress? lack of tea? inability to read/type/think/spell/contruct 
coherent grammatically complete sentences through the medium of the 
internet?)

	I'd be interested in seeing (if you're collecting them) statistics on 
how much spam this system rejects - and what the load on the server 
looks like, compared to what it looked like without greylisting.

	When greylisting is only applied to a triple once and once only 
(assuming it resends successfully) it becomes a much less bad thing, in 
the greater scheme of $stuff.

	Best regards,
