On a new postfix/dovecot configuration, email is generally working OK. That said, I'm seeing "Client host rejected: Access denied" messages in the logs for two of the client company principals when they are connecting remotely. I'm pretty certain their mail clients are set up correctly to authenticate (but will confirm this tomorrow) as the owner is pretty tech-savvy. However, I did note in the logs that their local ip in the helo parameter (e.g. helo=<[192.168.1.125]>) is the same IP block (192.168.1.x) as the office LAN. Is it possible this is what is causing the access to be denied?
