I user reported mail not getting to him from somebody and I found this in the log:

       ^^^^^^^^^^

bmmail.cwf.org returns a valid result from a dns check. What am I missing here?

It looks like the sender of the message is trying to send their mail directly from their badly configured mail client, or from a badly configured MTA, which is identifying itself as being called "doorway3".

Either way, the sender's setup is broken, and your system is quite rightly rejecting the mail (as is everybody else's).
