First off I don't think this is a postfix problem. I'm hoping someone here has seen something similar and can help me out. Google so far has turned up nothing for me. :(

I get this same warning from gmail, yahoo & live. The email goes straight the the junk email folder on all of these systems. :( Makes me very unhappy.

I assume the warning: 27.86.26.64 <http://27.86.26.64>: address not listed message if from the far end. I check DNS and see PTR is there. Then check dig -x

Postfix smtpd uses gethostbyaddr() and gethostbyname() system libraries.
Here's a great post by Wietse from the archives to see what Postfix sees: http://archives.neohapsis.com/archives/postfix/2001-02/1165.html
This should help you debug a bit more.

If that turns up nothing interesting, someone more knowledgeable than me can help further.

I must have something screwed up in DNS but can't find it. I can post my zone file if that helps. Anyone out there that can toss me a bone?

I'm only using postfix for outgoing mail. No incoming.

Just in case someone thinks my postconf might help.

root: postconf -n
[...]
mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost
myhostname is default.  Hard to tell what it is from this output.
'postconf -d myhostname' may help you know what postfix is using.

smtpd_sender_restrictions = permit_sasl_authenticated, permit_mynetworks

This line is useless as everything permits (implied permit at the end).
