Please do

then send a new test mail and see which IP is being used. you can send
me a message so that I see which IP is being used.

it came out from 196.212.65.186.
if you still have problems, post the output of 'postconf -n' and the
contents of master.cf. feel free to hide private infos, but do so
coherently. also tell us which OS is this.

This is risky. better put it in master.cf for those listeners that
should not do address rewrite. otherwise, if you disable filtering,
you'll forget this and you'll spend hours trying to figure out why your
virtual and friends aren't used...
smtp_bind_address = 196.212.65.187
so the setting is there.

consider using proxymap (add proxy: just before mysql:). check the docs
for more infos.

Master.cf is pretty much stock except this at end....
Make sure there is no option there that overrides smtp_bind_address.
Make sure your NAT implementation does not nat your smtp traffic.
Im starting to wonder if this isn't the case...
However would be confusing to me if it is!
looks like it may be the case. which NAT do you use? is it an external
box or is it pf or ipf on the same box (with pf or ipf, use pfctl or
ipnat to see nat rules and states).
if you can disable NAT while you run a test, do so (you can still send
me test mail).
you can tcpdump while you send mail (feel free to send it to me) and see
which source IP is used.
And Thanks guys for trying to help!
I might be a bit moody, but im sure you understand the pressure when things
like this happens!
yep. good luck.
