I'd be tempted to set up a milter or policy filter that for each rcpt
would connect to the Exchange server (assuming that's where it's destined)
and see if that server will accept it.  There's probably a better way to do
it, but that's what comes to my mind.

You could also use Postfix's built-in recipient address verification feature.

The recipient is a real recipient. The m$change server is rejecting on on the sender domain part, where the postfix setting "reject_unknown_sender_domain" does not fit here since these domains do have a MX record. The problem really boils down to determining what criteria m$change is using to reject the sender domain. Keep in mind that these mails are spam.

Forward and reverse do not match for the mail server, and I think I am seeing "unknown" regarding the connection ip because of this. Should I look into rejecting on these grounds? Or is that, to intrusive and subject to false positives?

Note: We are rejecting many because of the "reject_unknown_sender_domain" but not all.

Thanks,
