You never issued the DATA command

Here you did, so it was accepted. What did you see in /var/log/mail when
this happened?

What is your range then? You replaced it with xxx.xxx in the paste from
the telnet session, but that is fundamentally useless, as no one would
be able to connect to your private IPs anyway, even if you published
them all. You can hide public IPs if you want (but if it's a public mail
server, you have to publish it at some point) but private IPs don't have
to be protected

That shouldn't be used. Ever. .local isn't a valid domain, it's reserved
for zeroconf stuff.

But tell us what it says in /var/log/mail when you try to send a mail.
Usually postfix is very good at specifying what the problem is
