The last message is what's causing trilug not to relay. As all good e-mail servers are configured, the TriLUG mail server is configured to NOT relay mail, except in one very special circumstance. That circumstance is when you've authenticated with a valid username and password (alternatively, I think it may relay when mail is sent from localhost too, but we may want to reconsider that). So, your postfix must be configured with your username and password for the TriLUG mail server to relay. This means you will have to store it in plaintext on your server at home and that, sadly, is a violation of the TriLUG Terms of Service (or at least it would be if we had ever written them down completely). So, I would suggest what Chris suggested that you relay through the RoadRunner SMTP servers, since that's what they're their for when you have RR service.
I understand that postfix needs to be set up for an authenticated connection. I believe I've got that configured correctly with the smtp_sasl_password_maps variable. But I guess not. As for using RR was a relay, I'm slightly tinfoil hatish and I don't want RR storing every email I send. Oh well, thanks for the help. Ken Cheers,
Tanner P.S. TriLUG switched to a CACert SSL Cert for the web server during the last meeting but we should now also go ahead and do the same thing for smtp, imap and pop too at some point.
