Okay, so you have turned off all relay except for authenticated
sessions.

It should not be enabled unless you are sure that *all* of your
authenticating clients support this mechanism. Not all common MUAs do.

That's because the FQDN of the server is not properly configured. Go
to Virtual Server-Properties-Delivery-Advanced and fill in a valid
entry. Your mailserver's public IP must have a PTR (reverse DNS)
record that matches this entry; in kind, this entry must have a public
DNS A record that points back to your mailserver's public IP.

I wouldn't worry about your MUA (client) configuration at this time.
If your mail is first accepted by the mailserver, and later you
receive a bounce message, that indicates that [a] in your client
session, you allowed to relay to the recipient (or else the message
would not be accepted for delivery in the first place), but [b] the
server cannot make a successful relay to the next hop.
