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

The line in /etc/services is fine. It's uncommented.
smtp IS included in bastille-firewall.cfg
postfix "is" running.

I have no clue as to what closed that port! And I've rebooted a couple of times. So what ever is doing it, is persistant!

Here's something to think about, what if the portsentry didnt get completely removed, and left some cruft.. some of which happens to be blocking port 25
this is likely the weirdest problem I've ever seen. Its probably the most persistant mystery yet! I'm absolutely drawing a blank here.
