I would like to use postfwd version 2 to limit the amount of daily mail sent by my sasl authenticated users.

I installed latest tarball: postfwd-1.35 with latest postfix from Centos 6.4

In my I have only this rule

id=RULEZEROSASL
  sasl_username=~/^(\S+)$/
  action=rcpt(sasl_username/500/86400/REJECT only 500 recipients per day for $$sasl_username) 

which should reject only mail with authenticated users (not mail from trusted mailservers).

My postfwd2 listens on tcp 10045 and in my postfix main.cf I have

# Restriction Classes
smtpd_restriction_classes       = postfwdcheck
postfwdcheck                    = check_policy_service inet:127.0.0.1:10045
127.0.0.1:10045_time_limit      = 3600

...

smtpd_recipient_restrictions =
        permit_mynetworks
        permit_sasl_authenticated
        permit_tls_clientcerts
        reject_unauth_destination
        check_recipient_access  hash:/etc/postfix/access
        reject_invalid_helo_hostname
# postfwd con rate limiting
        check_policy_service inet:127.0.0.1:10045
        warn_if_reject reject_non_fqdn_helo_hostname
        warn_if_reject reject_unknown_helo_hostname
        warn_if_reject reject_unknown_client
        reject_non_fqdn_sender
        reject_non_fqdn_recipient
        reject_unknown_sender_domain
        reject_unknown_recipient_domain
        warn_if_reject reject_unverified_sender
        reject_unverified_recipient
        reject_rbl_client zen.spamhaus.org
        permit  

in /etc/postfix/policy

.   postfwdcheck

I see no rule matching entries in log and the command

postfwd2 -vv --dumpcache -f /etc/postfwd.cf

shows the request number

[STATS] postfwd2::policy 1.35: **5** requests since 0 days, 01:05:31 hours

increasing only for manual tests done with:

 nc 127.0.0.1 10045 <request.sample

Any idea why postfwd is not engaged by postfix?
