After installing postfix, there seems to be a problem when I try to send a mail through wordpress. After looking at the logs, this is what I found.

I am not sure how mail.tehnika.mk is getting picked up. mail.tehnika.mk is not a valid sub-domain/domain. I did a quick look-up for MX records for tehnika.mk and found mx.zohomail.COM and mx2.zohomail.COM which are not your domain.

It appears that your Wordpress is sending the e-mail to postfix, but the smmsp@mail.tehnika.mk e-mail address is incorrect.

If you intend that smmsp@mail.tehnika.mk should be smmsp@tehnika.mk then you need to check your configuration(s) to make sure that the e-mail address used is correct. Not knowing Wordpress, I would start there and change smmsp@mail.tehnika.mk to smmsp@tehnika.mk. Otherwise, I would be checking your Linux user and making sure that the e-mail address is smmsp@tehnika.mk.

If you intend that smmsp@mail.tehnika.mk should be correct, then you need to create an MX record for mail.tehnika.mk by first creating a CNAME that points mail.tehnika.mk to tehnika.mk. Then you would need to create an MX record for mail.tehnika.mk. Then remove the other MX records found above.

The problem you have is that the existing MX records are not pointing to your domain. These have to be removed and an MX record created that points to your server. You have two options, mail.tehnika.mk or tehnika.mk. If you intend that smmsp@mail.tehnika.mk should be correct, then follow the steps above. Otherwise, check the user e-mail addresses in your configuration(s) and create an MX record as prescribed for tehnika.mk.
