Looks like your problem is that you're trying to send email from a
non-valid domain, thats why you're getting the 
"553 localhost.localdomain does not exist" error.  It should be somthing
like "webmaster at 0.0.0.0" where 0.0.0.0 is your IP address.  I can't
remember off the top of my head how to fix that, but i'm pretty sure
it's an /etc/hosts issue.
