Ok, let's test.
# host -t mx pukruppa.de
pukruppa.de mail is handled by 10 mail.pukruppa.de.
# telnet mail.pukruppa.de 25
Trying 217.92.171.227...
telnet: connect to address 217.92.171.227: Connection timed out
There is no SMTP daemon listening for the outside world.
I guess the missing port forwarding ist the problem.
I enabled port forwarding for
port 25 in my router - though of course
one never knows, what it really does ...
I guess, it must be a bit more tricky. I just sent myself a mail from
googlemail listening on my Fedora box with:
# tcpdump -n -i any tcp port 25
and instantly receive a lot of activity like

And 209.85.212.178 seems to be some google machine.
To me this looks as if port forwarding is all-right but Postfix does not
react (?!?)
