Best in smtpd_data_restrictions so you don't reject sourceforge and others sender verification probes.


That didn't go well:

Apr 4 20:15:28 mail postfix/smtpd[16843]: 60D15118AC14: reject: DATA from english-breakfast.cloud9.net[168.100.1.7]: 554 5.7.1 Service unavailable; Client host [168.100.1.7] blocked using ips.backscatterer.org; Sorry 168.100.1.7 is blacklisted at http://www.backscatterer.org/?ip=168.100.1.7; from=<owner-postfix-us...@postfix.org> to=<krem...@kreme.com> proto=ESMTP helo=<english-breakfast.cloud9.net>



The example showed using an access map that only checked mail with the null sender.

As you see, using ips.backscatterer.org as a general purpose RBL is unsafe.
