The greylisting is presumably handling tuples of (sender, recipient, source-IP). So the milter can't do the TEMPFAIL until RCPT TO: time. The delay_checks feature also delays DNSBL checks until RCPT TO: time. However, since the DNSBL checks are configured directly into sendmail's configuration file, they're going to happen before the milter "sees" the recipient address. Just curious; why would you want this the other way around anyway? Paul. -- Paul Howarth <paul@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
