Ubuntu postfix sendgrid unknown mail transport error

1

I have configured postfix similar to this one: "Recipient address rejected" when sending an email with sendgrid

$ /etc/postfix/main.cf

smtp_sasl_auth_enable = yes 
smtp_sasl_password_maps = static:username:password
smtp_sasl_security_options = noanonymous 
smtp_tls_security_level = may 
header_size_limit = 4096000
relayhost = [smtp.sendgrid.net:587]

But I keep getting such errors:

Feb 3 22:57:29 vsempprdapp11 postfix/error[24019]: 327A4441481: to=<DistU_MyAdmin@bratgroup.com>, relay=none, delay=193633, delays=193632/1/0/0.01, dsn=4.3.0, status=deferred (unknown mail transport error) 

netstat shows I have port 25 listening

/var/www/app: netstat -an | grep :25
tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:25              0.0.0.0:*

LISTEN     
udp6       0      0 fe80::250:56ff:fe96:123 :::* 

my postconf


Another interesting thing is, if I change my main.cf to following it works for non-domain emails-ids(email addresses other than @bratgroup.com like @gmail.com, @hotmail.com emails get delivered). And for @bratgroup.com mail.log says connection timed out

# See /usr/share/postfix/main.cf.dist for a commented, more complete version
# Debian specific:  Specifying a file name will cause the first
# line of that file to be used as the name.  The Debian default
# is /etc/mailname.

My above SMTP settings had a syntax error:

relayhost = [smtp.sendgrid.net:587]

Should have been

relayhost = [smtp.sendgrid.net]:587
