/*
* greylisting is the practice of making unknown callers call twice, with
* a pause between them, before accepting their mail and adding them to a
* whitelist of known callers.
*
* There's a bit of a problem with yahoo and other large sources of mail;
* they have a vast pool of machines that all run the same queue(s), so a
* 451 retry can come from a different IP address for many, many retries,
* and it can take ~5 hours for the same IP to call us back. To cope
* better with this, we immediately accept mail from any system on the
* same class C subnet (IPv4 /24) as anybody on our whitelist, since the
* mail-sending machines tend to be clustered within a class C subnet.
*
* Various other goofballs, notably the IEEE, try to send mail just
* before 9 AM, then refuse to try again until after 5 PM. D'oh!
