OH well, back to the drawing board - now I can send it, but I can't get
it...
I am pretty well conviced that there is something bad in my main.cf file. I
have included all of the entries here (sans the notes)
myorigin = $mydomain
inet_interfaces = 192.168.1.2
mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain
mynetworks_style = class
mynetworks = 192.168.1.2/28, 127.0.0.0/8
relayhost = smtp-server.cfl.rr.com
alias_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/aliases
mail_spool_directory = /var/spool/mail
mailbox_command = /usr/bin/procmail -Y -a $DOMAIN
smtpd_banner = $myhostname ESMTP $mail_name ($mail_version) (Mandrake Linux)
debug_peer_level = 2
debugger_command =
PATH=/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin
xxgdb $daemon_directory/$process_name $process_id & sleep 5
delay_warning_time = 4
sendmail_path = /usr/sbin/sendmail.postfix
newaliases_path = /usr/bin/newaliases.postfix
mailq_path = /usr/bin/mailq.postfix
setgid_group = postdrop
manpage_directory = /usr/share/man
sample_directory = /usr/share/doc/postfix-1.1.11/samples
readme_directory = /usr/share/doc/postfix-1.1.11/README_FILES
alias_database = hash:/etc/postfix/aliases
