I agree that port 25 is dead. The question is: Why & How?

Thanks for the reply.
But I got this solved. It was a postfix problem. In setting it up to do spam filterning, it became corrupt...

To fix it, I totally uninstalled postfix, then cleaned out the config directory, and re-installed.

Without postfix, there is nothing to listen to port 25. The port wasn't "closed"... there was just nothing holding it open.
