Newbie Problem

[Tod Thomas <tthomas@xxxxxxxxx>]

I've installed qmail and according to qmailctl stat everything is
working fine.  The only problem is I can't send outgoing email from my
server.

The server lives within an intranet, so I know the name of the SMTP
gateway and know it accepts connections on port 25.  Currently my server
has no reason to accept incoming mail so I don't need that configured,
but some day I'd like it to manage an internal mailing list.

By now I have messed around with the configuration so much I think I've
managed to mess things up.  Sending only outgoing email seemed like a
fairly straight forward thing to do.

Could anybody offer some pointers?  


Thanks - Tod

./qmailctl stat

/service/qmail-send/log: up (pid 11796) 1 seconds
/service/qmail-smtpd: up (pid 8232) 531813 seconds
/service/qmail-smtpd/log: up (pid 11797) 1 seconds
messages in queue: 12
messages in queue but not yet preprocessed: 10

These ten don't want to leave the queue and the number will likely
increase as they are log messages that are periodically sent to root.
