Getting auto-block to work

Does anyone have a PF rule that actually blocks woodpeckers? I have this
rule:
pass inet proto tcp from any to any port smtp \
flags S/SA keep state \
(max-src-conn 10, max-src-conn-rate 2/20, \
overload <woodpeckers> flush global)
I understand that as being no more than twice in twenty seconds (which is
amply generous by my reading of the RFC), but it's not working; for
example, the latest problem-child is:
Date: Mar 31 00:04:10 (v2UD3uT2070289)
from=<return at manualpratico.info>
relay=server1.manualpratico.info [186.251.128.25]
reject=450 4.7.1 <dave at horsfall.org>... I greylist .info
Date: Mar 31 00:14:25 (v2UDEBaT070308)
from=<return at manualpratico.info>
relay=server1.manualpratico.info [186.251.128.25]
reject=450 4.7.1 <dave at horsfall.org>... I greylist .info
continuing every 15 seconds (and I've seen much worse) which I have
manually blocked ("pfctl -t woodpeckers -T add 186.251.128.25", but isn't
PF supposed to do that for me?
(And yes, Sendmail also has this non-working "feature", but that's OT.)
