No, look again at the messages he's providing.  I can't speak for the
cyrus log entries in his syslog, but the 250 response from the MTA
(Postfix) is the telling one - there's no "AUTH" showing up there, which
means it's not configured to accept authentication.  Typically, a local
trusted net connection won't *require* auth, but I've yet to see a setup
where it's *prohibited* simply because it's local.
