I ran into almost this exact same problem when I first installed asterisk. My company uses a virtualdomain hosted by our isp. We'll call it mycompany.com for example. When I first set everything up I wasn't able to send any mail from the asterisk server even though it was on an accepted IP. The problem turned out to be that I did not use an FQDN along with the e-mail address on the server. Setting [EMAIL PROTECTED] in voicemail.conf didn't solve the problem so I tried creating an actual mailbox under our virtual domain called voicemail. That still didn't work. For some reason sendmail was still passing "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" to the mail server. What ultimately solved the problem was setting mailcmd=/usr/sbin/sendmail -t -f [EMAIL PROTECTED] in voicemail.conf. After that relaying worked perfectly.
Apparently the account had to both exist under our domain and be passed correctly by sendmail.
