Your mail server doesn't allow relaying (which is a good thing, trust me).
It will send mail externally, but the FROM needs to be a valid email address or valid host on the mail server. Look at your mail server and read about the relaying ... If someone outside gets ahold of your mail server and you allow relaying they will relay all kinds of spam through your mail server and possibly get your banned...
