Thank you for your reply, this was my first idea too, but in our config it says:

require
message = Found an invalid header
verify = header_syntax

So I would have expected a line in the logfile that says something about "Found an invalid header". But there is non. Can it still be that require-statement above?

There is no other 'verify = header_syntax' statement in the config-file.

If I replace the above by

deny
message = Found an invalid header
!verify = header_syntax
!sender_domains = example.com

would it then selectively allow those mails through that come from example.com and check the others for header syntax?
