One of my network devices seems to have issues with its hostname:

"Unexpected error from e-mail server(state=3): 504 5.5.2 <dazedandconfused>: Helo

Appears in my event log of the device when it tries to send logs to my Postfix 
gateway server.  Is there a filter I can add via main.cf to allow just this 
host/IP address without needed the full hostname (which my device has suddenly 
not to give :) )

Thanks in advance!

Is this device's IP included in your mynetworks setting? You should list "permit_mynetworks" before you "reject_non_fqdn_helo_hostname".

If you don't want to list this device in mynetworks for some reason, you can use a check_client_access map to whitelist the client's IP. See the archives if you need examples.
