I am not seeing a rcpt to that shows a different from address on my postfix 
logs.

One item possibly worthy of noting is that I did see this entry in my postfix 
logs on a connection to the same site that sent the forged email:

enabling PIX workarounds: disable_esmtp delay_dotcrlf for remote-mta.example.com

My main.cf does not have any such entries defined, but postconf | grep -i pix 
does give this:

lmtp_pix_workaround_delay_time = 10s
lmtp_pix_workaround_maps =
lmtp_pix_workaround_threshold_time = 500s
lmtp_pix_workarounds = disable_esmtp,delay_dotcrlf
smtp_pix_workaround_delay_time = 10s
smtp_pix_workaround_maps =
smtp_pix_workaround_threshold_time = 500s
smtp_pix_workarounds = disable_esmtp,delay_dotcrlf
