hi,
We use the email greylisting policy for incoming email for us and our customers, and it appears that often the email from Sunrise network comes with huge delays, from several hours to several days.
Did anyone else see such problems? Guys from Sunrise, plase contact me directly for more details and troubleshooting.
Such delays seen in email coming from smtp-auth-be-01.sunrise.ch (mail-proxy-be-01.sunrise.ch [194.158.229.48]) smtp-auth-be-06.sunrise.ch (mx-auth.sunrise.ch [194.158.229.90])

Yeah greylisting... :-)

Yes we've seen this from smtp-auth-be-01.sunrise.ch, too.

Spam is evil. Very evil. It turns email unreliable. But is it the right treatement to add more unreliability?
That's what makes greylistings questionable.

It works quite fine for few thousand users on our side, since about 6 months. Those few issues like this one are quite acceptable, compared to the betefits :)

Why bother greylisting someone who you know will be retrying anyway? Just add the sunrise mail servers to your whitelist.

of course I did. But I think it's better to resolve the problem at its source :)

Just a guess: The more retries to a certain SMTP destination, the longer the retry interval...leads to exponential delivery times.
Pure greylisting is - just like blacklistsing - is useless or leads to unexpected behavior without a well-maintained and monitored whitelist for a corporate or ISP e-mail system.
Up to each engineer what he is using for his own private or business server - but this is a different pair of shoes.
