Are your messages bouncing back to you ?

Are you trying to send mail out from your mail server at your home ?
   If so, is your server reporting its' identity as a valid, DNS resolvable

Do you have orphaned emails floating around in /var/spool/mqueue ?

What mail server are you running at the house ? (sendmail ? postfix ?)
