Re: greylisting plugin

It's normal behavior - it's the idea of greylisting to first block the email temporarily. Regular mailservers try to deliver the email again in few minutes and this new attempt will not be blocked by iRedMail.
If you'll search in your log, you'll see new successful attempt to deliver the same email.

The whole greylisting policy stands on the idea "Spammers don't have time to try again".
