Also, if you are testing greylisting from a GMail account, GMail tends
to retry messages from another random outgoing server, so it may take
considerable time before GMail happens to randomly pick an outgoing
server it has already used and greylisting can confirm the same message
from the same user at the same server... (It would be nice if GMail
would assign an outgoing message to one server and just retry from
there)
