No worries. Nice to have someone reasonable to chat with. Bit of a dry spell on that. It's appreciated. > On 2/23/2012 2:58 PM, rg86...@airpost.net wrote: > Ah, a different server. Important infomation (or maybe I missed it...). Easy to miss. Fwiw, as originally @ http://marc.info/?l=postfix-users&m=133002076514425&w=2 my sendmail 'send' was sent from 192.168.1.13 to postfix listening @ "inet_interfaces = 192.168.1.10 192.168.1.11".

So IIUC, I need to RE-add the list of spamtraps in the has table as valid users (removed as valid after known to be compromised ...) so that, rather than being off-hand rejected as an unkonw/non-existent user@domain, the multiple-recipient message gets carried through far enought to get to where that DISCARD check+action is valid? Is that approaching correct? If so, then I assume that I leave only postscreen listening at the 'real' external address, and the spamtrap address check shoud remaing associated with the 127.0.0.1:10026 reinjection listener, as you'd previously advised?

My understanding was that that was too early in the process. Thanks again for the help. Cheers, Roger
