We are not forwarding, we are not sending spam, in fact we are not 
even sending bulk mail at all, still we get rate limited by Google.

Strangely enough, right since I verified my domain schamanek.net for 
postmaster.google.com we get rate limited every few days. E.g.

  Feb  2 16:52:04 iac postfix/smtp[7719]: 1A9BB227: host 
  gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com[173.194.65.27] said: 421-4.7.0 
  [188.40.39.209      15] Our system has detected an unusual rate of 
  421-4.7.0 unsolicited mail originating from your IP address. To 
  protect our 421-4.7.0 users from spam, mail sent from your IP 
  address has been temporarily 421-4.7.0 rate limited. Please visit

  our Bulk Email 421 4.7.0 Senders Guidelines. r17si2803368wjw.232 
  - gsmtp (in reply to end of DATA command)

We are sending on average 15 messages per day to gmail addresses. Our 
total outbound rate is 135/day. I wonder what Google considers an 
"unusual rate of unsolicited mail". Apparently, zero qualifies, too!?

So, good luck to those who, just like me, have spam filters (of 
course) and consider(ed) to add feedback loops, special headers, 
change forwarding to fetching etc., it might not help.
