I deleted /var/lib/postfix/verify.db and reloaded postfix.. It seems ok
now

Thanks a lot for that !

I noticed a lot of these warning in mail.log:
Jun 12 21:48:25 mx01 postfix/verify[12799]: close database
/var/lib/postfix/verify.db: No such file or directory (possible Berkeley
DB bug)

Do you think it is related ? I googled the warning and it seems like a
non-issue..

No, it doesn't.

This is an OLD result from your address verification cache.

Apparently, you have a corrupted cache file, or you have messed with the
address_verify expiration times.

Remove the cache file and do "postfix reload".

This is a NEW ADDRESS VERIFICATION PROBE that is sent to the right relay
host.
