Do you have 2 NICs and only have SMTP on the outside one? Does the SMTP
server know where buddy is? Have you tried localhost instead of buddy?
I'm basically just trying to follow the path all the way through and
figure out where the connection drops off. If you can confirm it into
the SMTP server, you then have to confirm it out. If not, it's lost in
there somewhere and it's time to figure out where the log is for it.
