I'm using the greet_pause feature in Sendmail 8.13 to delay giving the smtp banner by a couple of seconds. It's a great anti-spam tool.
Unfortunately, it's confusing hobbit:
Service smtp on tolstoy.denmantire.com is not OK : Unexpected service response
554 denmantire.com ESMTP not accepting messages 550 5.0.0 Command rejected 221 2.0.0 denmantire.com closing connection
If hobbit had waited 2000 milliseconds after the connection before trying to send, it would have worked just fine. Is there any way to insert a small delay there?
