user cannot receive mail from some address - johnnyrevell - 02-04-2010 11:47 PM
A mail user cannot get emails from certain address, the sender gets "Mail appeared to be SPAM or forged". It looks like postfix is rejecting it due to policyd-weight (see log below). Is this correct, and can the address be whitelisted or the reject level dropped?

Are You sure, that every thing is correct with bind configuration (MX aliases) ?
Is possible, that You configured wrong IP as main mail IP, if You have more that one.

Yes, policyd-weight is rejecting the e-mails because the sender's smtp server is not properly configured. Anyway, you can both setup whitelisting for policyd-weight and adjust the scoring (see "man policyd-weight" and run "policyd-weight defaults").
