Increasingly we are having trouble with Spamhaus blocking legitimate email, including email sent from one of our server customers to another server customer. Since we haven't had this problem up until the last 3 weeks or so, we're guessing some update or new relationship between Spamhaus and Spam Assassin has been deployed. If you have thoughts about this, please comment. If no one has thoughts about it, my question would be can I disable Spamhaus as a filtering tool?
Howdy,
Hmm, I hadn't run into that personally.
However, just to clarify -- is it a SpamAssassin rule that's being triggered? If so, can you share the X-Spam-Status header of the email that was incorrectly marked as spam?

Howdy,
It looks like there's a Postfix policy service setup to block things based on SpamHaus settings... the IP address "2600:3c00::f03c:91ff:fe89:74ee", is that on your server?
That IP is listed in the SpamHaus CSS database... SpamHaus describes that database here:
https://www.spamhaus.org/css/
As long as your server is listed there, you may want to stop Postfix from using that particular RBL.
