You can save yourself some time by not doing that.  Too many
false positives.  Instead consider:

        reject_unknown_reverse_client_hostname

  http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html#reject_unknown_reverse_client_hostname

Which is reasonably safe for most users.

Thanks for that. I was misremembering what I had done with qmail.

However, the question still remains: how can I test this without actually
making one of my domains live?

Thanks

John
