Please, do not even think about adding a domain to that list. Just by you
mentioning that means you do not understand what relaying is.

I do not know if was you or someone else asked the same exact question not
too long ago. I responded you first have to determine where that notice came
from.

What is the entire message, including headers, that you received with that
error notice?
