Default [courier-users] imap mail and greylisting

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Hi,

I'm checking Squirrelmail out.
Squirrelmail interfaces with Courier via imap.
Also, we're using the pythonfilter with greylisting.

What happened is that a mail could not be sent but was rejected with a
message "greylisting in action - come back in 5 min".
Reading the documentation it seems that /etc/courier/enablefiltering
controls
what mail is filtered. This file contains just the standard "esmtp"
entry.
Therefore I was assuming that mail from local users (including hosted
domains) is not filtered. (I think that Squirrelmail submits mail via
PHP).
Is that not correct?

I check /etc/courier/imapd and enabled the "Outbox" function. As mail
is submitted to directly to Courier (via sendmail) no error message
should be returned.
Is that assumption correct?

The mail is sent but stays in the "Outbox" folder. Is this a feature?

So, the problem is that users don't understand neither like "come back
in 5 minutes". Is there another way to accept mail from local users
without a greylisting message being returned?

cheers,
Bernd
