Are there more than only one network interfaces that are connected to the same switch/hub/router-with-multiple-ports? If so then it's an old known problem. If you have this kind of setup then try set the "arp-filter" on. for example: echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/all/arp_filter if this does

Hi, you shouldn't try to block everything that comes from a host which has no open smtp port, this is in generel a bad idea... reason: there are a lot (and I mean a lot) of servers out there, which only sends mail out to the world, but should never recieve any mail directly, so that it is okay

you should also filter out 127.0.0.0/8 on any network interface but "lo". so that spoofing with localhost-adresses is not possible anymore. ( for example: iptables -A INPUT -s 127.0.0.0/8 -d 127.0.0.0/8 -i lo -o lo -p ALL -j ACCPET iptables -A OUTPUT -s 127.0.0.0/8 -d 127.0.0.0/8 -i lo -o lo -p A

you are missing the following config options (main.cf): mynetworks = 127.0.0.1 smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_mynetworks reject_unauth_destination mydestination = localhost, That's all you need. But it sounds like you don't need your postfix listen on your ethernet (or maybe ppp/pppoe/
