​I have my own domain that is hosted and I send from my office to the
hosted server, which should send it to the correct place.

And I found the problem: I should​

​have enabled SASL. I have done that now:
    smtp_sasl_auth_enable = yes
    smtp_tls_security_level = encrypt
    smtp_sasl_tls_security_options = noanonymous
    smtp_sasl_password_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/sasl_passwd
    smtp_sasl_security_options = noplaintext, noanonymous
    smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = no

And now sending to external domains works.

I thought to be smart, but I really was not. :'-( I could have saved a lot
of time by just installing the Debian version and amending it.

There are still some things I should look after, like:
    warning: unable to create missing queue directories

But it is probably not the most urgent.
