I'm not with RedHat in any way, but: It seems more likely to me that the cause of the inconsistency is due to the ip address of sender's email server is changing. I can't imagine an organization like RH implementing greylisting in such a spotty fashion. The three things that most greylist software looks for are: 1) ip address of the sender's mail relay 2) "To:" address 3) "From:" address So if any of these are different, your message will get greylisted.
