I did an telnet to your machine and that seems ok:

Leto:/Volumes renevanhoek$ telnet mail.kovarovi.org 25
Trying 194.212.102.169...
Connected to bimbo.kovarovi.org.
Escape character is '^]'.
220 mail.kovarovi.org ESMTP Postfix
EHLO test.a8.nl
250-mail.kovarovi.org
250-PIPELINING
250-SIZE 10240000
250-VRFY
250-ETRN
250-AUTH PLAIN
250-AUTH=PLAIN
250-ENHANCEDSTATUSCODES
250-8BITMIME
250 DSN

Also according to the maillog, the client don't authenticate. So the
problem is as far as I can see with the configuration of the client.

As an test, did you try for yourself to relay mail through your mta with
Windows and Outlook? In this way you can rule-out (or confirm) client
configuration mistakes.

Otherwise refer your client to Microsoft Support ;-)
