I can't say how most email servers are currently configured by default, but
when I set it up years ago it wasn't part of the standard apt-get install
mail server and it works...  Did you set it up to use TLS?

Your trausch.us is hosted at Google so how would you check the logs there?

A quick grep through my logs shows it is working...

I could show you more, but I wouldn't be a very good admin if I start
publishing other people's personal info without prior permission.
