What experience have folk had tightening restrictions, like lack of MX or A or mis-matched MX/PTR pair?
Does it still cause a lot of false rejections?

I turned on the postfix restriction:

  smtpd_sender_restrictions = reject_unknown_sender_domain

a couple days ago and found some servers I take care of had a hosts line like:

  127.0.0.1    kermit localhost  localhost.localdomain

and so mails would go out claiming to be from <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

I fixed the hosts line and now mails come through.

I consider postfix to be working properly in this case and the fedora core installer to be the misbehaver here.
