What is in your /etc/postfix/access ?
It's basically simple text file something like:

192.168.100.0/24 OK
127.0.0.0/8 OK

Obviously set network mask as it suits your security concerns.
Then type *
postmap /etc/postfix/access
to create hash.
*Other smtpd related settings from my main.cf ( just in case :)) :
smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_mynetworks, check_relay_domains
smtpd_sender_restrictions = hash:/etc/postfix/access
smtpd_client_restrictions = check_client_access 
hash:/etc/postfix/access, reject_unauth_pipelining
Best regards,
Denis.
