ok you are confused.
If the message is just sitting in the queue its past the smtp stage.
There WILL be lines in the log that say something similar to:
info msg 10247: bytes 1239 from <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> qp 18994 uid 601
starting delivery 3579: msg 10247 to local [EMAIL PROTECTED]
status: local 1/10 remote 0/20
delivery 3579: failure: here_is_my_reason_for_failing./
That's what you should see, if you don't you are looking in the wrong place
or your logs are jacked.

Linux?
i've checked /var/log/syslog and /var/log/maillog. neither are coughing up
messages from qmail-smptd. but, i am able to send messages to other users on
that machine. so, it must be a problem with the user configuration.
