The MX of the domain has got IPv4 address only, so IPv6 is not used. We have got such a special transport for sites with advertised IPv6 addresses but broken IPv6 connection...

It seems it's a persistent problem. I tried to contact the postmaster at the other side but of course got the same reject. We'll try to contact them via a third party. Thank you to remind me about smtp_delivery_status_filter, it can come handy in other cases!

Sender IP reverse lookup rejected
Hello, One of our users reported a rejected email with the error code and message Remote-MTA: dns; artemis.gat.com Diagnostic-Code: smtp; 550 Sender IP reverse lookup rejected We handle several domains with different outgoing smtp settings at multiple mail gateways: # /etc/postfix/master.cf wignersmtp unix - - y - - smtp -o smtp_bind_address=148.6.0.56 -o smtp_bind_address6=2001:738:5001::56 -o smtp_helo_name=smtp.wigner.mta.hu -o syslog_name=postfix-wigner-smtp # /etc/postfix/main.cf default_transport = kfkismtp sender_dependent_default_transport_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/sender_transport # /etc/postfix/sender_transport @wigner.mta.hu wignersmtp: ... The sender address was from the @wigner.mta.hu domain and the IPv4/IPv6 addresses resolve to smtp.wigner.mta.hu. The HELO name is also explicitly set to this name. Using debug_peer_list I could verify that the wignersmtp transport setting is used for @wigner.mta.hu senders indeed. So, what kind of incorrect setting can the "Sender IP reverse lookup rejected" error message be mean?
