Check your identity.  Is your from address:

Jens Grüntjes <jens.gruentjes at ebira.de>

as opposed to:

"Jens Grüntjes" <jens.gruentjes at ebira.de>

That first e-mail address is invalid.  We probably weren't so strict  
previously in allowing that, but now we are.  If verified, we should  
probably upgrade this in an upgrade task.
