Mmm you are right, I'm greylisting viruses while I thought I wasn't.
That's bad, I'd like to fix it.
 
It could be fixed by sending the answer after the end of the DATA
command, but I don't see how this could work with multi-recipient
messages where some recipients use greylisting and some others don't.

There is another bad thing with answering after RCPT commands: sender
callbacks such as milter-sender's one get greylisted.

Any ideas?
