Sending of email works fine, but I can't recieve them. I tried sending with my "freemail mail", after a few seconds I always get this answer:
> Hi. This is the qmail-send program at mailout-de.gmx.net.
I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses.
This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.

.de>:Recipientaddressrejected:Userunknowninlocalrecipienttable/Givingupon_62.146.106.39./ .de>
In /var/log/* I can't find any new entry when I tried to recieve a new mail (e.g. no error's).
