Hi,
I would like to prevent postfix from logging when connections come in
from certain ip addresses.

Is there a way to do this?
Postfix uses syslog for logging. You can use an appropriate syslog filter to
filter out these messages from going to maillog. For rsyslog (common on redhat
based systems) a filter like below should work:
create a file /etc/rsyslogd.d/postfix-ignore.conf with the below line.
if ($syslogfacility-text == 'mail' and $msg contains 'from
unknown[192.168.25.2]') then ~
Remember to restart rsyslogd after this.
