Hello,

I've installed and configured Yanc 1.5 and really like the features.  I tested things out with a few different email addresses, and everything worked well, except for one email subscription.

When I investigated further, I found that this email address uses "greylisting," which rejects an email and returns a "try again later" the first time an email is sent from an unknown contact. The second time the email is sent, it is accepted. 

Does anyone know of a way to make Yanc work with this greylisting technique (i.e., try to send the email again if it is rejected the first time)?  As spammers get more creative, I suspect more and more email applications will be implementing strategies such as this...

ok, had a look at what it actually is (www.greylisting.org), but it seems this is being handled at the mailserver level.. I don't think there's a need to manually build this in.

a normal mailserver will try to send it again when it receives a try-again-later message
