So I'm very new to postfix, however I have a feeling that the Regex stuff can 
be done via some scripts. I guess that how the Python SPF checkers work...

But as I said, I'm new to postfix so I could be way off target

How about something more simple: test for From: is the same as To: and is from 
MAILER-DAEMON:

grep "^From:.*<da...@kosmosisland.com>" "$test" \
&& grep "Return-Path:.*<MAILER-DAEMON>" "$test" \
&& grep "^To:.*<da...@kosmosisland.com>" "$test"

..where "$test" is the email file to scan.  But can this be done with Postfix?
