Package: greylistd
Version: 0.8.3
Severity: minor

I have had a couple of users report mail delivery failures, because
their MTAs only queue messages for an hour.  Even more irritating, they
provide delay warnings every 10 minutes.

e.g, bounce message received at 11.40 on 14 November 2005:

> Your message was received 11:08:10 Mon, 14 November 2005.
> The mail system will keep trying to deliver your message for another
> 0 hours 28 minutes. 

Clearly this is broken behaviour, but it might be worth reducing the
default greylisting period from an hour to something less.

I don't know what the offending MTA is, It helpfully provides the
following identification:
