[Cialug] Logwatch not sending email to my Gmail account

[Rob Cook]

Tried to send a logwatch to my work email, this time I get a different
error:

*Aug 16 09:11:49 backup postfix/smtp[10456]: 67D6B40469: to=<rcook at work>,
relay=dsmmx01.work[216.x.x.x]:25, delay=1.3, delays=0.92/0/0.24/0.17,
dsn=4.1.8, status=deferred (host dsmmx01.work[216.161.126.40] said: 450
4.1.8 <root at backup.cookfam.lan>: Sender address rejected: Domain not found
(in reply to RCPT TO command))*

So work is rejecting due to being an invalid TLD I think, GMail is
something else, and while the log says that it's delivering my logwatch
(referring to the IPv4 200) I'm not getting it at all.
