I suppose there is a mailserver running on 127.0.0.1?
Did you configure what IP to bind to in the setup-alerts-smtp-primary-advanced
screen?

Subject: [SA-list] Unable to relay mail to 127.0.0.1 ?

Using SA 6.2.x, we are attempting to use an SMTP server on the
local host rather than an external one.  We set the SMTP server to
127.0.01 and/or localhost, but this doesn't appear to work.

SA either falls back to relaying directly or gives a cryptic error
message in the log about unable to bind to an address...

Does this have something to do with the goofiness in Windows where its
127.0.0.1 address isn't a physical interface?

Thanks,
Ray
