Hello. Full picture: i am still at the 9fans mailing-list, which over time has been migrated to topicbox.com, and this is handled via messagingengine.com (it is saddening to do configuration via policy server as the two domains are distinct, sigh).
Well, there started a lot of noise on these lists recently, for the first time since the new setup is active i think, and today i again stumbled over the fact that postfix receives many successive mails from these servers, then creates / refreshes the verify_sender DB, but seems to have "no state machine" regarding sender verification, but simply "brute force verifies", for example here: Jan 14 15:16:16 postfix/smtp[892]: 4013616065: to=<bounce.mmf69fb7a2ec786bdd37fc8981.rf5167a6a-eb83-11e9-92f5-7ab8f5b1d...@9fans.bounce.topicbox.com>, relay=mx1.topicbox.com[103.168.172.233]:25, delay=1.6, delays=0.02/0.17/1.3/0.14, dsn=2.1.5, status=deliverable (250 2.1.5 Ok) .. Jan 14 15:16:16 postfix/smtp[893]: 8D64D16067: to=<bounce.mm1d0608a97b91ed0ef138d2f7.rf5167a6a-eb83-11e9-92f5-7ab8f5b1d...@9fans.bounce.topicbox.com>, relay=mx1.topicbox.com[103.168.172.232]:25, delay=1.6, delays=0.01/0.23/1.2/0.19, dsn=2.1.5, status=deliverable (250 2.1.5 Ok) ... Jan 14 15:16:16 postfix/smtp[891]: 586AF16066: to=<bounce.mm0295fcc211a103059818efab.rf5167a6a-eb83-11e9-92f5-7ab8f5b1d...@9fans.bounce.topicbox.com>, relay=mx1.topicbox.com[103.168.172.233]:25, delay=1.7, delays=0.01/0.1/1.4/0.13, dsn=2.1.5, status=deliverable (250 2.1.5 Ok) today two in parallel, but it can be more even, it seems unbound (by itself). Could anything be done about that, aka synchronization be enforced? I also seem to remember being fooled by nonsense mails which then cause sender verification to kick in to unrelated things, but i have forgotten about the details, actually. I am also totally rusty regarding DNS, off-topic.., but if i do "dig topicbox.com" i get "103.168.172.5" for another 178 seconds, but if i do "dig -x 103.168.172.5" i get NXDOMAIN by messagingengine.com, which is what one gets when asking for MX of topicbox.com. It seems no good.. whatever. Maybe someone reads that..
