I pulled out the tls lines from my main.cf.  You may need to change the
loglevel to get more information.

Could you be rejecting unknown (number-to-name lookup fails) IP addresses?  I've been rejecting those as a relatively easy, effective spam control ( reject_unknown_hostname, reject_unknown_client )

[root at www postfix]# grep -i tls main.cf
## TLS
# client-side-tls
smtp_use_tls = yes
smtp_tls_key_file = /etc/postfix/postfix.key
smtp_tls_cert_file = /etc/postfix/postfix-cert.pem
smtp_tls_CAfile = /etc/postfix/cacert.pem
smtp_tls_loglevel = 1
# server-side-tls
smtpd_use_tls = yes
smtpd_tls_key_file = /etc/postfix/postfix.key
smtpd_tls_cert_file = /etc/postfix/postfix-cert.pem
smtpd_tls_CAfile = /etc/postfix/cacert.pem
smtpd_tls_loglevel = 1
smtpd_tls_received_header = yes
smtpd_tls_session_cache_timeout = 3600s
tls_random_source = dev:/dev/urandom


Hope this helps.
