RFC allows to use "narrowly tailored" excuses for blocking messages to
postmaster and abuse.

<quote src=" http://rfc-ignorant.org/policy-postmaster.php ">
* After careful consideration, there seemed to be a consensus among users
that use of blacklists, etc., did not meet the "narrowly tailored"
requirements for blocking mail to postmaster, but that it would be
undesirable to list sites simply for employing the MAPS RBL and such on
their postmaster address. It was decided that we wouldn't list folks if the
rejection message for postmaster seemed to indicate the reason for denial
("{ip} rejected as listed on the MAPS RBL", etc.)
