What Darrin says :).

Also, Brian implemented greylisting because the mail server was being
driven into the ground by all the SPAM coming in. Since greylisting the
machine mostly sits idle.

I setup greylisting at home and in the first 3 days rejected over 500k
SPAMs.

Looks like it was only 32k SPAMs yesterday, so greylisting has also caused
the amount of SPAM sent to me to go down.
