The sending IP is included in the mail headers. Looks like this: > Received: from mx2.freebsd.org (mx2.freebsd.org [8.8.178.116]) > by shopzeus.com (Postfix) with ESMTP id 46681889603E > for <gandalf@shopzeus.com>; Wed, 9 Sep 2015 12:58:40 -0400 (EDT) All SMTP server should prepend the ESMTP id for any message they receive, and also the address it was arriving from, and the address it as received for. Maybe I'm wrong, but I think RBL checks and other spam checks work on all IP addresses/domains that can be found in the "Received:" headers. Spamassassin works on email files that are stored under /var/spool/MailScanner/incoming. postfix puts received messages "ON HOLD" into this directory, and mailscanner moves that message back for delivery after scanning it. Maybe I should post this question to the mailscanner list (however, I feel this is also related to FreeBSD MailScanner and spamassassin ports)
