Seem Red Hat now uses greylisting his own too. My last posting was
deferred and I saw following in my mail server's log:

Dec 10 03:55:18 noc sm-mta[34507]: iBA2t4kA034505:
to=<fedora-list at redhat.com>, delay=00:00:13, xdelay=00:00:12,
mailer=esmtp, pri=32357, relay=mx2.redhat.com. [66.187.237.31],
dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: 451 4.7.1 greylisted for 21 minutes and 27
seconds.
