Hello,


Postfix write the Received header like this:


Received: from HELO.HOSTNAME (*HOSTNAME_OF_CONNECTING_IP*
[CONNECTING_IP])
          by HOSTNAME_OF_POSTFIX (Postfix) with SMTP id 0ABBCCDDEE
          for <[email protected]
<mailto:[email protected]>>; Wed,  1 Nov 2010 00:00:00

is there a way to tell postfix not to write the
HOSTNAME_OF_CONNECTING_IP, or disable the reverse DNS lookup
so that is always 'unknown' ?

Best regards,

To disable the lookup, see:
http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html#smtpd_peername_lookup

Caution: setting this to "no" causes postfix to treat all clients as "unknown". As a result, name-based check_client_access tables will not work, and if you use reject_unknown_client_hostname or reject_unknown_reverse_client_hostname they will reject every connection as "unknown".


If you only want to suppress the header, you can use a header_check that matches the offending header with an action of IGNORE or REPLACE.
