Hello,

I am setting up a mail server. Managed to make it work, it receives email and sends email from the server itself fine. When I try to send email from work, it gives me the following in the logs:

Nov 27 08:43:05 Elena postfix/smtpd[12366]: warning: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx: hostname a.b.c.d verification failed: Host not found
Nov 27 08:43:05 Elena postfix/smtpd[12366]: connect from unknown[xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx]
Nov 27 08:43:05 Elena postfix/smtpd[12366]: 62AD5601: client=unknown[xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx]
Nov 27 08:43:05 Elena postfix/smtpd[12366]: 62AD5601: reject: RCPT from unknown[xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx]: 554 <destination@domain.com>: Relay access denied; from=<mymail@mydomain.com> to=<destination@domain.com> proto=ESMTP helo=<source>
Nov 27 08:43:09 Elena postfix/smtpd[12366]: disconnect from unknown[xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx]

The IPs and addresses were filtered for security reasons. Anyone knows why this is happening? From work, it receives email but does not send.

Thanks in advance,
Vince
