That didn't solve the problem, but logging did give me some more clues.

It appears that the google mail server doesn't like the message-id created for email addresses that are not associated with ACS users.

When I added a user with the email address of my google group, then emails would send.

If there is a user with the email address, I get a message-id like the following and google accepts the email.
Apr 21 10:25:03 pfserver postfix/cleanup[21735]: [ID 197553 mail.info] A08FF2AD46: message-id=<mailto:20573.46157836076.18-281+1682699103+59A2ABE1E65FC5B55A5A3DA756E4A8704CD23658@logansw.com>;

If there is no user with the email address, the message-id is as follows and it gets rejected.

Actually the message-id that works does not start with mailto: in it. That's being added by the OpenACS Forums code.

It should just be:
message-id=<20573.46157836076.18-281+...

Hmm, can it be that you have some older version of the forums in place, or some local modification? I can't find a code, where "mailto:" is added to the message-id. Or, maybe, it this coming from some parameter?
