After beginning the morning blessings, does the prohibition on greeting with Shalom still apply?
Synopsis
The Mechaber says after starting blessings there is no great concern. The Taz challenges this, arguing the blessings do not help. The Magen Avraham and Mishnah Berurah distinguish between going to someone's door (still forbidden) and casual encounters (permitted after starting blessings).
