Hello,
I get nothing inside ipfilter logs.
Here is the ipf.conf file (public ip has been coded into {public-ip}) :

You have a bunch of block rules with no logging. Try adding log to those.

To be clear, do you ever get *any* logging from IP Filter? Or do you mean that when the Postfix hang occurs, you don't see anything special logged at that time?

Also, when you get a hang, see what netstat -an says about the connection(s) in question.

And again about black-list stuff, I understand what you say, but that should be true even when ipfilter is disabled (content inspection should be still there indipendently of my firewall state), while mails go out quickly when the firewall is down.

Yes, that's why I wrote "While your other diagnostic may rule out blacklists," earlier. Yes, the fact that removing IP Filter clears the problem is good evidence that it is not related to blacklists, but I was clarifying what I thought to be a misapprehension as to how blacklists are sometimes used.
