Thanks for the reply. Yes, I found I had my postfix machine misconfigured 
such that it only used TLS for receiving mail and not sending. Thus 
courier was (correctly) not logging or adding headers to mail coming from 
the postfix machine.

Also by default postfix does not add the headers to mail it receives. So I 
was not seeing those on mail coming form the courier machine (because the 
receiving machine is the one that adds it to the headers).

So I fixed the conf on the postfix machine, and enabled the addition of 
the TLS headers on the postfix machine. Now I see the headers going from 
postfix to courier, and from courier to postfix.

This really wasn't a courier issue at all. It was my incorrect assumption 
that enabling TLS for smtpd on postfix enabled it for incoming and 
outgoing. It works on courier ;-)

(see above) That was the issue. The postfix machine was not actually using 
TLS when sending mail.

Thanks!
