From: "motty.cruz" on
Hello,

User(a)domain.com was receiving tons of backscatter mail, I successfully block
backscatter email with the following header_checks in main.cf. however, I
noticed in the logs that even genuine messages with header "Undelivered Mail
Returned to Sender" are being block. Do you have any suggestions how to
solved this issue?

I had read http://www.postfix.org/BACKSCATTER_README.html#real

Please help!
