Which log files?

Here's the mail.log

Mar 13 06:34:56 buddy postfix/pickup[10201]: AE8FFEA003: uid=1000 
from=<david at dmcentral.net>
Mar 13 06:34:56 buddy postfix/cleanup[10572]: AE8FFEA003: message-
id=<200903130634.56510.david at dmcentral.net>
Mar 13 06:34:56 buddy postfix/qmgr[10202]: AE8FFEA003: 
from=<david at dmcentral.net>, size=544, nrcpt=1 (queue active)
Mar 13 06:35:26 buddy postfix/smtp[10574]: connect to scc-
mailrelay.att.net[204.127.208.75]:25: Connection timed out

I see it's trying to relay the mail through AT&T. Does this mean it's trying 
to send the mail through AT&T? I'm trying to send though dmcentral.net not 
AT&T.
