hi all....

i have a machine heavily hit with a bunch of from=<> messages...

i read around and implemented the access solution as in:

/etc/postfix/main.cf <http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html>:
           smtpd_client_restrictions
<http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html#smtpd_client_restrictions> =
               check_client_access
<http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html#check_client_access> hash
<http://www.postfix.org/DATABASE_README.html#types>:/etc/postfix/access

       /etc/postfix/access:
           1.2.3   REJECT
           1.2.3.4 OK


my /etc/postfix/access looks like:


.eigbox.net                     DISCARD
.yourhostingaccount.com         DISCARD

and did the postmap command


how do i know it's working? i still get lots of these in my maillog:
