Take this one with a grain of salt..  I believe this is where you'd change 
this....
 
cd /etc/sysconfig
cat network
 
"cat" is like dos/windows "type".  I think you'll see your hostname listed in 
there.  How you edit it will be a matter of taste.. Personally, I use vi, which 
is typically scary if you haven't used it before, but I think I can walk you 
through it..  just do a "vi network".  You'll see your file in the editor 
window.  press "I" (letter "eye") to go to insert mode.  Now the editor will 
work more or less how you'd expect..  cursor keys, backspace, etc..  When 
you're done, press escape, then press the ":" key to get a command prompt at 
the bottom, and type "wq" and hit enter to write and quit.  

If at any time you want to abort your edit because you messed something up with 
vi, press colon, and do a "q!" to quit without saving.
 
There are probably easier editors on there, but I dont know what they may be - 
I tend to use vi.  
 
Another related hint for editing / copying / moving things using your windows 
machine is to use a program called "winscp" to get an explorer-like interface 
to your linux box from your windows client over the network.  It's a really 
cool tool, just google for it.
 
Good luck!
-Steve

Wow, Thanks so much for all your help.  I tried Steve's suggestion using tail 
and found:

from=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, ...
stat=Deferred: 450 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: Sender address rejected: Domain not 
found

So it looks like the sender email is no longer acceptable.  This worked fine 
b4, so perhaps the ISP taking care of the callees email has changed its policy? 
 Anyway, I could use a hand on how to fix this.  How do I get Asterisk to use a 
valid email address rather than [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Many Thanks,
Hugh

        Do a "tail -f /var/log/maillog" which will give you a  real-time view 
of your mail server activity, then while that's running, leave yourself a 
voicemail.

        The first place to look would be in /var/log/maillog on the box. 
        
        Look particularly around the time when a voicemail should have been 
sent.
