Thank you for your swift answer.
Unfortunately setting default_process_limit to 0
results in load going to infinity, and everything breaking.
Also the grey listing that we are using is not the
one that came with postfix, but the one at greylist.org.
Postgrey seems also to have a process limit, although it may be the
process limit of the machine. I am out of my league here.

most of which were empty, had to increase smtpds to
500 to deal, but postgrey barfed much above
250.
Running FC3. Is there an upper limit to smtpd
for postgrey's sake? CAn postgrey be changed?
Thanks in advance. Homer
From HISTORY:

Robustness: recommend a "0" process limit for policy servers
to avoid "connection refused" problems when the smtpd process
limit exceeds the default process limit. File:
proto/SMTPD_POLICY_README.html.
