    I recently Installed Postfix + Dovecot on debian wheezy, I can send and receive emails using @server.myhostname.com HOWEVER, when I use @mydomain.com I can send but cannot receive. This is the error on gmail
    Code:
    Technical details of permanent failure:
    Google tried to deliver your message, but it was rejected by the server for the recipient domain domain.com by mx-biz.mail.am0.yahoodns.net. [63.250.193.253].
    
    The error that the other server returned was:
    550 relaying denied for <[email protected]>
    
    here is my main.cf file

    Code:
    myhostname = server.myhostname.com
    mydomain = domain.com
    myorigin = $mydomain
    mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost, $mydomain
    mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8 [::ffff:127.0.0.0]/104 [::1]/128

    smtpd_tls_CAfile = /etc/ssl/mailcerts/cacert.pem
    smtpd_sasl_local_domain = $myhostname

    smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_sasl_authenticated, permit_mynetworks, reject_unauth_destination
    
    here is my master.cf file

    I need to use @domain.com and not @server.myhostdomain.com, what is the possible solution for this? any help would be much appreciated. thanks in advance!

    Sorry for posting without waiting to see if anyone has an idea to this problem, but I have been investing a lot of time on this and still cannot get the ideal result. Any idea would be very much appreciated
