Dear Postfix users,

First a belated BIG THANK YOU to Wietse and his 20 years of Postfix. You're awesome!

Second:

I'm running Postfix version 2.11.6 and have setup an access map of sender email addresses

someu...@somedomain.com OK

then doing a postmap on the access map and in the main.cf I setup the following:

smtpd_sender_restrictions = hash:/etc/postfix/access

and later in the main.cf I setup some recipient restrictions with checks on RBL

smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_mynetworks, permit_sasl_authenticated,
    ...
    reject_rbl_client bl.spamcop.net, reject_rbl_client zen.spamhaus.org,
    ...
    permit

Now I thought whenever I got an email from a sender listed in the access map it will always get delivered, because of the OK action, and will skip checks in the smtpd_recipient_restrictions?

but today a customer send me the following:

From: Mail Delivery System

Subject: Undelivered Mail Returned to Sender

This is the mail system at host mailout04.t-online.de.

                  The mail system

<i...@traenen123.com>: host mail.beckspaced.com[78.46.161.3] said: 554 5.7.1

bl.spamcop.net; Blocked - see http://www.spamcop.net/bl.shtml?194.25.134.18
   (in reply to RCPT TO command)

and the sender was the email address listed in the access map.

So I thought that email in the access map will never make it to the RBL checks and always will pass as OK?

Is there anything I need to think of to make it work? Whitelist an email address to always get accepted?

Thanks for your time & support ;)

Greetings
Becki
