Hi, 

I've posted this as a serverfault [1]question but had no bites so far. 

I am receiving about 50 rejected emails per day because there is a typo
in the sending email address and it's hitting
reject_unknown_sender_domain:

Jul 10 12:21:31 serverb3 postfix/smtpd[6647]: NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from
smtp.correctly-spelt-domain.co.uk[X.X.X.X]: 450 4.1.8
<em...@mis-spelt-domain.co.uk>: Sender address rejected: Domain not
found; from=<em...@mis-spelt-domain.co.uk> to=<em...@mydomain.co.uk>
proto=ESMTP helo=<smtp.correctly-spelt-domain.co.uk>

I've added em...@mispelt-domain.co.uk OK to /etc/postfix/sender_access,
ran postmap /etc/postfix/sender_access and restarted postfix. 

Despite check_sender_access hash:/etc/postfix/sender_access appearing in
my smtpd_recipient_restrictions list before reject_unknown_sender_domain
the emails are still being rejected for that reason. Why is this and how
can I fix it?

PS. I have also tried to address the root cause by contacting the owners
of the domain in question and informing them. I am not holding my breath
they will fix it. 

Thanks. 

Darren.
