I changed the user "smmsp" in /etc/mail/greylist.conf to user "root"
and now it runs on a valid socket!

[root@mail Desktop]# ps auwx | grep milter-greylist
root     20192  0.0  0.1  44280  1876 ?        Ssl  17:10   0:00
/usr/bin/milter-greylist -P /var/milter-greylist/milter-greylist.pid
-p /var/milter-greylist/milter-greylist.sock
root     20416  0.0  0.0   3912   680 pts/10   R+   17:17   0:00 grep
milter-greylist

... and it says it is running:
[root@mail Desktop]# service milter-greylist status
milter-greylist (pid 20192) is running...

Thankyou very much - it seems to have been installed properly.

I have another question now:
I plan on testing by telnet'ing to localhost 25
:telnet localhost 25  .. and going thru a normal SMTP command sequence
(HELO, MAIL FROM, RCPT TO, DATA, etc)

Now, what should I look for in /var/log/maillog ?

In mine it says:  
Feb 12 17:13:30 mail sendmail[20372]: l1CMCq2x020366:
to=arjun@localhost, delay=00:00:11, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=local,
pri=30731, dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent

Arjun
