Greylisting sending server sends on different IP

Hello,

A few times i have run into this issue and i'm not sure of an automatic way of correcting it.

An email comes in and gets greylisted. 5 or so minutes later the sending server honors the request and sends the email again, however it then comes from a different IP address. How can i have greylist automatically honor this message and have it approved to be delivered to the employees mailbox?

As of now, i either have to wait for this endless loop to finally use an IP a second time, or i have to go in and configure the clients_fqdn_whitelist or clients_ip_whitelist to allow the emails through without future filtering.

Any ideas or suggestions are appreciated.

I had so many problems with greylisting that I disabled it completely.
(clients called to say emails never get delivered, quite possibly because Gmail and Outlook 365 use different IPs in their load balancing mail relays)

It's not a solution to your problem, but just my experience to say you are not alone!

Just let it run, and eventually your system will "learn" of all the sending ips.

Same thing here
AirBNB uses a different IP address every time
Hope that anyone comes up with a good idea :D
