I try to send e-mails using two web applications I have on my server
(PROJECT.net and MANTIS Bug Tracker) but I never receive them, and I think is
a problem of my SMTP settings.
Are these settings correct? How can I test if it is working properly using
Telnet (I only know how to do it with anonymous access)? THANK YOU

When you connect to localhost, you are connecting to 127.0.0.1. Your
source address is thus also 127.0.0.1. If you only allow connections from
192.168.2.150, you will never be allowed to connect and/or relay.
There is also no reason for you to use outbound security unless you know
you are connecting to an upstream server that requires it.
