Did FAQ #13 not help?

I don't know how to configure the timeouts for postfix.
You can also call the progress() method to let the MTA know you're
"still working on it".

Some MTAs do not accept '' for xcode (and sample.py should include a valid 
xcode).  Maybe setreply should check this and give a more specific diagnostic.
