As in the topic:

When I send and recieve email on my WinXP-machine I can recieve.. but If I send they bounce back saying:
Code:
553 sorry, that domain isn't allowed to be relayed thru this MTA (#5.7.1)

Have I done somthing wrong?
The only iptables thing I have set up is:
Code:
iptables -t NAT -A POSTROUING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE

I don't know anything about firewalling, I will read up on it though..

The problem isn't your firewall. It is in the configuration for your mail server. What email program are you using on your server?

Well, it worked before I connected it through the Gentoo-server instead of the switch :\

The mail-program is Microsoft Outlook and the mailserver is "my own" mail.b0d.org, or mail.backanda.se.. and public servers mail.gentoo.se and mail.home.se

I mean what email server software are you using, sendmail? postfix? something else? Your error message means that your mail server is not letting you send the message because it doesnt recognize the domain that your from address is in.

I got it all fixed.. appearently it had changed to secure SSL login on sending mail..
