    And for what it's worth, at my "day" job, we do in fact
greylist for the entire University.

I'd say that is a total of at least fifty thousand e-mail
addresses if not substantially more for service addresses and
departmental stuff. We've had a few problems here and there, but
on the whole it's been rather painless.

    Of course, this came after our blocking people for DSN
via rfc-ignorant, and I believe that has actually caused more
grief by number of incidents reported thus far than greylisting.


    To each his own of course.  :)
