I have Postfix 2.1 on Freebsd 4.10 and am having trouble blocking email from a domain.

Here is a snipet of the postqueue -p:

I would like to block the .co.jp so it doesn't pile up in postqueue.
This seems like your email address has been used as sender_address with some spam rejected by yahoo.co.jp (just a guess). Anyways your MAILER_DAEMON tries to send bounces to yahoo.co.jp. You'd have to check what's inside those bounced messages to find out what's the real problem, I mean why your mailserver is generating those bounces. You could reject those messages by rejecting recipients from yahoo.co.jp. but this is not recommended.

No, his postfix is generating these bounces. His postfix accepted mail addressed from *[email protected], wasn't able to deliver it, and it attempting to return to sender.

Very likely these non-delivery reports are because his system is accepting mail to non-existent recipients. He is generating backscatter, not a victim of it.

Maybe OP has a wildcard entry in his virtual_alias_maps.
