So the mail server, wpxxx.webpack.hosteurope.de, is saying that you're
not allowed to send email to that address, zz@holnishaus.de, through it
- nothing new in that, that's the message that you got all along.

One thing that might change the servers opinion is if you log in.

I think that is usually done by adding a password in ~/.authinfo.gpg -
i.e. adding a line like:

    machine smtp.gmail.com login asjgrn@gmail.com password MyGPassword

(switch out the smtp-server hostname, login, and password).

Does sending email to that address through that mail server work in
other clients?


  Best regards,
