Since you didn't bother providing 'postconf -n' output, which would

useful clues, we are left with making random guesses...
My random guess: you're doing sender verification. Don't. It's broken

Hi Bill,
Thanks for your reply. Attached is my postconf -n output. The only
smtpd_sender_restrictions we have in place are:
So my second guess was right. From that file:
postscreen_bare_newline_enable = yes
postscreen_non_smtp_command_enable = yes
postscreen_pipelining_enable = yes
Those *guarantee* that the first connection from any unfamiliar IP will
get a 450 reply to any RCPT offered.
