You're not showing any of these restrictions. Include the contents of all these access maps, and, specifically, the definition of your restriction class (postconf does not output non-standard settings.) The recipient address is legit and working for other senders. Any ideas as to what could cause this? You're matching and rejecting the *sender* address /somewhere/. -- J.
