So I have just had another look at my e-mail server regarding my situation, and 
I found something very odd.
 
Postfix seems to be unable to send e-mail to IPv4 addresses, but it can send 
e-mail to IPv6 addresses.

This is odd because Postfix is configured to use an IPv4 interface only, and 
its even more odd that the interface is a PPTP VPN tunnel which PPTP doesn't 
even support IPv6!
 
What the ?!?!?!?!
 
Here is an extract of my mail log, demonstrating what I mean:

you have in your main.cf:

inet_interfaces = 192.168.2.2


this is private IP address. This address is apparently not properly NATted on your or your ISPs firewall.

According to:

https://marc.info/?l=postfix-users&m=168294384808797&w=2

E-mail server enp0s3 interface IP address: 192.168.1.2
E-mail server ppp0 interface IP address: 192.168.2.2
VPS enp6s18 interface IP address: 1.2.3.4


these commands don't do what you mean them to do:

iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -d 1.2.3.4 -p tcp --dport 25 -j DNAT --to 
192.168.2.2
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -d 192.168.2.2 -p tcp --dport 25 -j DNAT --to 
1.2.3.4

...your problem is at network/firewall level.
