I've been trying to set up a mail server, with dovecot, postfix, opendkim, and spamassassin. After some hassle I managed to get incoming mail working (I signed up for this account with the email!). However, outgoing mail just doesn't work--I tested this by sending from this new email to my old Protonmail account and got an error. Again, it works with incoming mail--sending from that old email to my new one. Sending was tested with Neomutt using msmtp as its mail sending command.
I've got a relayhost that goes to port 587 of my domain. This is because my ISP is fat and blocks port 25 for some reason. Anyways, here's the log messages I get when sending an email:
postfix/submission/smtpd[57255]: NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from unknown[192.168.86.1]: 454 4.7.1 <[email protected]>: Relay access denied; from=<[email protected]> to=<[email protected]> proto=ESMTP helo=<mail.doma.in>

why am I getting this error? I've gone through several other questions where this was asked, notably:
- https://serverfault.com/questions/42519/how-to-correct-postfix-relay-access-denied
- https://serverfault.com/questions/711588/postfix-relay-access-denied-how-to-fix-it
- Relay access denied when using SMTP to external recipients POSTFIX FREEBSD
None of those helped, though
