I got greylisting running last night on my mailserver. Seems to have
cut the number of posts to my mailman mailing lists quite a bit. I
had well over 700 posts I had to discard the past 3 days and this
morning I had 3. As far as I can tell all mail is coming in to my
750+ users also. Im using relaydely and sendmail. Wasnt to hard to
get going. Readme and files included are a little vague, but finally
got the right perl packages in and its up and running. I'll keep an
eye on it the next few days and see. What kind of delay is everyone
using for this? All yea, Im running Fedora Core 6, most of my
packages are from install. I have installed some perl modules and did
some yum updates, so everything is up to par.

I use 5 minutes
FWIW - I left sendmail/relaydelay a few years ago in favor of
postfix/sqlgrey/mailscanner/spamassassin/clamav and it's worked very
well.

I tried greylisting as well, I am using exim as my MTA. I found that
although greylisting worked, I found nightly updating the rules for
spamassassin worked better they greylisting and as such have dropped the
greylisting.
Just my experience, your mileage may vary
