Are you running spf checks on your postfix installation ? Setting up spf records alone in DNS is not enough.
check http://www.topdog.za.net/centos_5_virtual_hosting_postfix_setup#spam_prevention under the spf part. or http://www.openspf.org/Implementations
postfix/policy-spf[5301]: : Policy action=PREPEND Received-SPF: pass (hotmail.com: Sender is authorized to use '[email protected]'... Thanks mate works like a charm, and finally i stoped this plague called SPAM auuuuuuuuuuuuu!!!!
