On an iRedMail, when receiving an email from steam, the mail server rejects the email with the error message “Recipient address rejected: Intentional policy rejection, please try again later”.

Jan 31 20:31:46 mail postfix/smtpd[2042109]: Anonymous TLS connection established from smtp-03-tuk1.steampowered.com[208.64.202.39]: TLSv1.2 with cipher ECDHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384 (256/256 bits)

This is due to gray listing in iRedMail server.

To whitelist steam in iRedMail, run

/opt/iredapd/tools/greylisting_admin.py --disable --from '@steampowered.com'

Example

root@mail:/var/log# /opt/iredapd/tools/greylisting_admin.py --disable --from '@steampowered.com'
* Disable greylisting: @steampowered.com -> @.
root@mail:/var/log#
