Hello,

In my setup, I’m using the greylisting policy. Now, a spammer tries to send 
mail to a nonexistent address. But he still gets the greylisting temp failure 
sent:

Nov 21 16:35:42 vanroodewierda.rna.nl postfix/smtpd[21832]: connect from 
unknown[186.1.16.66]
Nov 21 16:35:43 vanroodewierda /usr/libexec/postfix/greylist.pl[21841]: 
Temporary message rejection to: <g.c.th.wierd...@rna.nl> from: 
<brock.h...@toyotalibya.ly> sent from: [186.1.16.66] for: 60 seconds due to 
greylisting
Nov 21 16:35:43 vanroodewierda.rna.nl postfix/smtpd[21832]: NOQUEUE: reject: 
RCPT from unknown[186.1.16.66]: 450 4.7.1 <g.c.th.wierd...@rna.nl>: Recipient 
address rejected: Service is unavailable; from=<brock.h...@toyotalibya.ly>

Nov 21 16:35:43 vanroodewierda.rna.nl postfix/smtpd[21832]: disconnect from 
unknown[186.1.16.66]

rna.nl is in $mydestinations (it is $mydomain), g.c.th.wierdadd does not exist 
(is not a valid user or alias or virtual_user).

Config

smtpd_helo_restrictions =
        permit_mynetworks
        reject_non_fqdn_helo_hostname
        reject_invalid_helo_hostname
        permit
smtpd_client_restrictions =
        permit_mynetworks
        permit_sasl_authenticated
        check_client_access 
regexp:/Library/Server/Mail/Config/postfix/rna_rbl_whitelist_clients
        reject_rbl_client zen.spamhaus.org
        permit
smtpd_recipient_restrictions =
        permit_sasl_authenticated
        permit_mynetworks
        reject_unauth_destination
        reject_unknown_recipient_domain
        reject_unverified_recipient
        check_client_access 
regexp:/Library/Server/Mail/Config/postfix/rna_policy_whitelist_clients
        check_sender_access 
regexp:/Library/Server/Mail/Config/postfix/rna_policy_whitelist_senders
        check_policy_service unix:private/policy
        permit

Question: why does this message end up in greylisting while I have 
reject_unverified_recipient set?

Is this potentially an (unexpected) result of smtpd_delay_reject = yes?

Thanks,

G
