Hello, I am running postfix mail_version = 2.5.5 under ubuntu 8.10 server. I have a static IP and a domain name pointed to the IP. I also have reverse IP lookup setup for mail.myrealdomainnamehere.com to avoid being treated as a SPAM server. (my IP and real domain names are not shown in this post)
However, my emails still get bounced saying that I have "Invalid 'From' header:" I am very new to postfix or any mail servers and hosting, and I have looked and searched so many places to resolve this issue for days but nothing has come across. Any help would be appreciated. The below is some of /var/log/mail.log. The bounced email also contains some of the messages shown in the log but not as detailed.
