Retaining only the host in the tuple is doomed to fail, as the spammer
does not have to maintain a queue anymore in order to resend with the
same (IP, from, rcpt). 

But your problem can probably be solved by using different greylisting
delays depending on DCC status: bad DCC, greylist for 4h, good DCC,
greylist for 15 mn (or do not greylist at all, that is your choice).

I am totally DCC ignorant: how does it work? Do you have some API or
accessiblee storage that milter-greylist could wuery to get DCC status?
