I do use greylisting on my server. It stores the IP, FROM and TO fields.
The second passed without any problems because you already sent one within the configured validity period.
This does not mean your problem is solved in any way. You should try sending me a mail again with a different from to get a real second time test. If it still bounces back and forth between your servers, I suggest you look at your configuration for something like Leonardo Boselli suggested. Because it will more than likely happen again with some other servers.
