Brilliant, thank you Wietse. It didn't like the colon in
/etc/postfix/transport so I took it out, otherwise it seems to be
working. I will monitor over the coming days (I am only getting these
responses from gmail a couple of times per day on average) and check
that it is now pulling the offending mails before they get re-sent.

Have others previously encountered problems like this? Maybe I am
unusual in using gmail for our user mailboxes + postfix for relaying
(so we can use our own domain names, dmarc etc while using gmail front
ends)?

Yes, from joomla with phpmail

I have disabled body_checks in postfix and than it was ok.

Re: postfix pdf

[Robert Chalmers]

From a different site…

How do I configure Postfix to never send NDR responses? For example, if someone 
tries to send an email to a user that doesn't exist, I don't want my server to 
respond and let them know that it doesn't exist. I just simply don't want it to 
respond.
It is strongly suggested that you do not disable NDR responses on any mail 
server. However, it is possible to disable NDR responses in Postfix if you 
would like to.

Open your Postfix master.cf file and find the following line:

bounce unix - - n - 0 bounce

Change it to this:

bounce unix - - n - 0 discard

Next, restart Postfix.

Please be advised that you will see an error in your logs whenever Postfix runs 
the discard handler instead of the bounce handler. The errors will look similar 
to this:

Dec 15 16:07:40 websrv1 postfix/discard[15220]: warning: unexpected attribute 
nrequest from bounce socket (expecting: flags)

Dec 15 16:07:40 websrv1 postfix/discard[15220]: warning: deliver_request_get: 
error receiving common attributes


So maybe you already have the ‘discard’ set ?

It looks like your Postfix installation is broken (contains binaries from
multiple versions of Postfix).  Stop postfix, re-install, and restart.

If problem persists, report a potential bug.

Note, I would not expect discard service requests to see the "nrequest"
attribute.  Posting the master.cf file is likely necessary for further
help.

No, he followed Robert Chalmer's advice to substitute the discard service
in place of the bounce service. Terrible idea.

Wow, more than "terrible": profoundly misguided.  The bounce service is not
a delivery agent and should not be modified.

Perhaps we should add comments above internal core service entries in
master.cf: "DO NOT REMOVE, DO NOT MODIFY, ..."

Personally, I believe it would be a waste of time Victor. Like the
saying, "Nothing is foolproof to the sufficiently motivated fool",
printing those warnings would probably make some individuals consider it
a challenge. On the other hand, if they are going to break it anyway,
what harm can it cause.

Making Postfix more fool-proof, versus nature making better fools.
