Subject: Postfix smtp connect problem

I am running FreeBSD stable (4.9 pre)

I installed Postfix from ports. 

If I log onto the server I can send mail using the quot;mailquot;
command. If I try an external mail client it times out. 

For some reasion postfix is not allowing connections other then local
host.

Can someone tell me how to fix this?

if you post some output (errors) from /var/log/mail, there is
a chance to help you. the output from `postconf -n` would be
interesting too.

I think I found the problem. It had something to do with the quot;aliasesquot; file. 
I noticed this when I ran quot;postfix startquot; at the command line. 

Before that I was doing everything from webmin. Webmin is nice but in this case it 
didn't give me any error messages. Not good.
