I am attempting to resolve the issue shown in the subject line from a
very basic Postfix installation on Ubuntu 12.04 server. I have included
my main.cf, virtual file and the error as it appears in /var/log/mail.log.
In my virtual file, if I change the destination e-mail address to
anything other than gmail.com (well, with all I have tried), the set-up
works fine.
I want to sent a piece of mail to a gmail account. I have seen
solutions that suggest authenticating with a gmail account, is that
necessary to send e-mail there?
Help!
The error:
