Agreed, it

We do greylisting per
"$sender_address:$local_part@$domain:$sender_host_address", but only
if the IP doesn't reverse resolve to anything or if its rDNS looks
like a dynamic IP. In general, we find that:
1) any multiple outbound IP system is properly designed and has rDNS,
so it doesn't hurt them.
2) any sending system which does not have rDNS is not sending
something we will want.
3) any sending system which does have rDNS but is a consumer
cablemodem or dsl modem is either a spam source or using
mis/non-configured SMTP Auth.

YMMV, but it works for us.
