Gitlab email configuration issue

I'm using Gitlab 7.1 CE on debian.

I set up smtp in /etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb

unicorn['port'] = 8081
external_url 'http://server_hostname.com:8081'
gitlab_rails['smtp_enable'] = true
gitlab_rails['smtp_address'] = "smtp.smtp_host.com"
gitlab_rails['smtp_port'] = 587
gitlab_rails['smtp_user_name'] = "gitlab@smtp_host.com"
gitlab_rails['smtp_password'] = "secret"
gitlab_rails['smtp_domain'] = "smtp_host.com"
gitlab_rails['smtp_authentication'] = "login"
gitlab_rails['smtp_enable_starttls_auto'] = false

I'm getting error

WARN: 553 5.7.1 : Sender address rejected: not owned by user gitlab@smtp_host.com

I don't know why sender email is set to gitlab@server_hostname.com instead of gitlab@smtp_host.com and no idea how to change it.

From email can be set in gitlab.rb:

gitlab_rails['gitlab_email_from'] = "gitlab@smtp_host.com"

Do you use Exim? https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/blob/master/doc/install/installation.md#1-packages-dependencies Note: In order to receive mail notifications, make sure to install a mail server. By default, Debian is shipped with exim4 whereas Ubuntu does not ship with one. The recommended mail server is postfix and you can install it with:
