I finally seems to succeed to make it work out...
I use an external DNS server for my mx record..it seems that i have no problem now to accept out of my network mails..but looking to have prolems to accept from my internal network.
it will be surely a setting of my mail.cf
thank you all for your help ..i really appreciate this a lot..
no, it's much more likley to be about routing and general networking. the only difference with internal and external from the mail server would be the source address in mynetworks, which are apparently already correct.
If you are trying to relay from outside (so sending from external sources to anything other than local addresses), you need to be very careful not to set yourself up as an open relay. You should probably look into sasl authentication and TLS to encrypt the sending of authenticating usernames/passwords. Be careful changinf postfix restrictions.
If you internal clients are resolving to the envernal IP, then you'll have issues.
On the client machine, try adding
internal.IP.of.server smtp.netconfig.gr
and then point your client to relay through smtp.netconfig.gr or to otherwise send through than hostname
