That is bad news; you probably built an open relay. Check the numerous postfix docs no how to avoid being an open relay - especially configure your server to use an AUTH mechanism if it is located in the open internet.
well... when I followed that link, it got me here:
http://cbl.abuseat.org/namingproblems.html
which is about mail servers using bogus HELO names (like "friend" or "mark" or "fihjjnjk"). I'm surprised (and skeptical, even) that postfix would be responsible for that. Perhaps there is something else doing direct SMTP connections from that system? At any rate it isn't a dovecot thing.
