here's the tcpflow output using the command 'sudo tcpflow -c port 25'.  I
tried looking at all the traffic but there was way too much noise:

x.x.x.x = mail server ip
anon.domain.com = mail server domain name
y.y.y.y = fixed ip at home

----tcpflow start
x.x.x.x.00025-192.168.181.083.49452: 220 anon.domain.com ESMTP Sendmail

This doesn't mean an awful lot to me, I hope you guys can shed some light.  

Thanks again for the time,
