Is there another way around this? Welcome to the list! Unfortunately, you seem to have missed the important welcome message: "TO REPORT A PROBLEM, PLEASE SEE http://www.postfix.org/DEBUG_README.html#mail"
Specifically we need the output of 'postconf -n' and the log of an entire transaction related to the issue. The logs will indicate the entry point (smtpd or pickup) which is required to help with your situation. The list also requests you send in Plain Text format and it is polite not to top-post to a mailing list.
