It is sort of fixed. I was worried by this entry:

May 24 15:38:35 apfel postfix/smtpd[7152]: NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from 
wr-out-0506.google.com[64.233.184.231]: 450 <priscilla at XXXXXX>:

But it may just be 2 different emails (because postgrey cut 
communication before the DATA, no Message-Id is exchanged).

I may reconsider the whitelisting of gmail.
