What you want to look into is the mynetworks line in
/etc/postfix/main.cf. If not set, postfix will (only) accept smtp relay
from clients on the same subnet.
Add all the clent's ip address you want to do smtp relay from to this
line, eg. mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8, 192.168.0.0/8, and whatever

I'm currently away from my home system. Before I left, I set up imap,
and pop so that I could receive my e-Mail, even though I'm not on the
network.
Now that I'm out here, I've noticed that I cannot send mail, via smtp
through my home server. It's not a major problem, since I can route
Are your messages bouncing back to you ?
Are you trying to send mail out from your mail server at your home ?
If so, is your server reporting its' identity as a valid, DNS resolvable
name ?
Do you have orphaned emails floating around in /var/spool/mqueue ?
What mail server are you running

It sounds like you are asking your MTA to do a relay when you are outside your
LAN, and postfix will not allow that by default. ( A good thing most of the
time.) You probably need to look at your configuration of postfix and see if
you can allow it to just relay from you.
Probably better
