Refer https://www.howtoforge.com/block_spam_at_mta_level_postfix and use section 2 Postfix 2.x configuration
Then test by sending emails from popular providers such as Gmail, Yahoo, etc. If you see log lines such as:
Sep 22 09:26:22 mail postfix/smtpd[12999]: NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from mail-lf0-f50.google.com[209.85.215.50]: 554 5.7.1 Service unavailable; Client host [209.85.215.50] blocked using dnsbl.sorbs.net; Currently Sending Spam See: http://www.sorbs.net/lookup.shtml?209.85.215.50; from=<jitendders@gmail.com> to=<jitender@rekallsoftware.com> proto=ESMTP helo=<mail-lf0-f50.google.com>
then it might make sense to remove corresponding blacklist. For example after above log lines dnsbl.sorbs.net can be removed to allow incoming emails from Gmail
How to query DNSBL blacklists using dig to check for blacklisting
To query a blacklist use commands similar to:
dig +short -t any 50.215.85.209.dnsbl.sorbs.net dig +short -t any 50.215.85.209.zen.spamhaus.org
Typically outputs that start with 127.0.0. indicate that given IP is known for sending spams.
