I only want my local machine to be able to send email out. I won't want to
receive email.

Today, I saw this info in my log. The "connect from" surprised me. How can I
prevent anyone outside my local machine from connecting to postfix?

Jan 26 09:26:48 ubuntu postfix/smtpd[20920]: connect from
124-11-132-104.static.tfn.net.tw[124.11.132.104]

124-11-132-104.static.tfn.net.tw[124.11.132.104]

The relay access was rejected, but I don't want anyone to get even this far.
Newbie-oriented advice appreciated.

BTW, I set up Postfix according to this guide:
