Anyone using zen.spamhaus.org?

If you use milter-greylist that's standard. I do the exact same thing. 
Putting the retry triplet into a whitelist is a standard part of 
greylisting. I use milter-greylist specifically because it will share 
the database with multiple mx hosts so that if the retry occurs on a 
different host it all still works, and they both know who's been 
whitelisted as well.

Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of 
arriving safely in a nice looking and well preserved body, but rather 
to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly 
proclaiming, "WOW! WHAT A RIDE!"
