A little more info from my syslog, showing what happens when I try a test 
message to myself (to my yahoo account):

Oct 14 21:07:50 stonekeep postfix/smtp[3396]: 208C882E: 
to=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, relay=none, delay=3849, status=deferred (connect to 
mx4.mail.yahoo.com[66.218.86.253]: Network is unreachable)
Oct 14 21:07:50 stonekeep postfix/smtp[3398]: connect to 
mx2.mail.yahoo.com[64.156.215.6]: Connection timed out (port 25)
Oct 14 21:07:50 stonekeep postfix/smtp[3398]: connect to 
mx1.mail.yahoo.com[64.156.215.5]: Network is unreachable (port 25)

What's with the timeouts?  I get the same thing for messages sent from my 
local box to the expert list.  I can only send messages now if I go to the 
yahoo web interface.  Local-sent messages timeout in every single case as 
above so I end up with a growing deferred mail list.

Any ideas?

I think a case can be made that faith is one of the world's great evils, 
comparable to the smallpox virus but harder to eradicate. Faith, being 
belief that isn't based on evidence, is the principal vice of any religion.
