I am not sure what you are referring to, I just did "egrep "24.51.13.81"
/var/log/maillog" to try to find out why this particular IP is passing =
the
RBLs and those are the results that showed up.

I'm assuming Postfix smtpd did accept those messages since they showed =
up in
my inbox which is behind my IMGATE machine that uses those RBLs that =
have
the mentioned IP.

connect/disconnect is not STMP behavior (which is what the MTA + RBLs=20
block, it's TCP behavior.  The RBL are not involved at TCP level.

If you want TCP blocking, use a packet filtering firewall.

Did postfix smtpd accept msgs from these IPs?
