Postfix/receiving mail through router problem

[pat bey]

FreeBSD 4.8 Release  hijra.homeunix.com

Checking all the postfix conf files and everything
seems to be in the
right place.  Thou this is my first time setting up a
mail server so it's 
a learning experience for me.  There are no errors in
any of the log files
anywhere. Telneting to port 143 and 25 everything is
working fine.  So I figured it must be a problem with
my router I think.  Checking maillog shows that mail
is being queued coming in and I can send with no
problem.

My router is configure to automactically updated my ip
to dyndns.org and it's assigned the same hostname
hijra.homeunix.com as my machine.

/usr/local/etc/postfix/main.cf

myhostname = hijra.homeunix.com
mydomain = hijra.homeunix.com
mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain,
hijra.homeunix.com

/etc/aliases
alias_maps = dbm:/etc/aliases
alias_database = dbm:/etc/aliases

Hope this is enough information. Always thanks for
your time and consideration :)

Postfix only listens on port 25 (as does every mail server).  Port 143
is for the imap server.

Show us the log files.  If mail comes in ok, and mail goes out ok then
I'm not sure what problem you have. [Where's it being queued?]

 Hope this is enough information. Always thanks for your time and

Show the output of postconf -n (non default configuration items) and
tell us which version of Postfix you are using.
