[olug] Postfix Issuez

Looks like you are probably sending mail from a dynamic IP and Google will not allow that to directly send mail. I have seen this before. I would recommend you setup a smart host. So if you are a Cox user use the Cox SMTP server as a smart host. 

If you are using Debian or Ubuntu you can set the up by running dpkg-reconfigure postfix. On the RedHat based distros the setting should be in main.cf.
