BLU.ORG mailserver tweak



I discovered this evening that the postfix mail server on blu.org was 
bouncing a lot of legitimate traffic through its spam-filter settings;
basically mail from systems that were missing their dns ptr records were
being bounced.

I've removed the reject_unknown_client option so the server will no longer 
check for ptr records. I've added the reject_unknown_sender_domain and
reject_unknown_recipient_domain options instead.
