It turns out that changing the inet_interfaces from "127.0.0.1 ::1" to "all" fixed the problem.
But you're right - I do go around yast ;-)

However, I noticed it says "localhost.smtp".  Does this mean it's not
listening to remote requests?

That just tells you it's listening on the interface identified as
"localhost". Usually that's 127.0.0.1.

Also, I finally received a Delivery Failure Report after 3 days:
"Deferred:
Connection refused by <my.machine.name.here.com>"

It looks like you went around YaST when you tried to turn it on. YaST
does more than just turn on that flag in the /etc/sysconfig file when
you use it to enable a mail server. Did you also update /etc/mail/access
to include the other IP addresses for the machine?
