That is sufficient to satisfy reject_unknown_reverse_client_hostname. But you have also configured reject_unknown_client_hostname. That requires that mailcluster.zen.co.uk resolves to the client IP address 188.39.73.166: $ host mailcluster.zen.co.uk. mailcluster.zen.co.uk has address 212.23.6.67 mailcluster.zen.co.uk has address 212.23.3.121 And that clearly does not satisfy reject_unknown_client_hostname. You can't use reject_unknown_client_hostname for that site, if you want to receive their email. Wietse
