It looks like there is misconfiguration of the MX records of your domain. Check and make sure they are correct.

Check the MX record using the looks like mxtools:

If you removed reject_unknown_client from  smtpd_client_restrictions  and it solved the problem then it means the source mail server is misconfigured a bit. Most likely it has a wrong RDNS record or doesn't have it at all.

This is not safe.  You have opened up your mail server to possibly used as a spam server.  You need to find the root issue of the problem.

As cyberspace said, you have no valid rDNS value for the IP https://dnschecker.org/reverse-dns.php?query=78.36.107.76.  YOu need to contact your host to updated your PTR record to your servername.
