No that is not the case. This is only the problem cause when you are
incorrectly rejecting *inbound* maill that is properly yours to deliver.
To allow outbound mail see:

If my response solves your problem, the best way to thank me is to not
send an "it worked, thanks" follow-up. If you must respond, please put
"It worked, thanks" in the "Subject" so I can delete these quickly.
