Is the connection authenticated or inside your allowed network? You list permit_sasl_authenticated before reject_invalid_hostname. The first matching test wins.

Be sure master.cf doesn’t override main.cf for specific daemons. It’s fairly common to provide IP-specific listeners — for example, no auth for SMTP from localhost — that don’t have the same restrictions.

Also be sure it’s actually not resolving the hostname; if you’re pointed at the wrong DNS all hostnames resolve (to an ad server).
