Russell,

  That's part of the problem. On the host with postfix installed (and on
which I do my work), I cannot telnet to port 25 at my external IP address.

the outside can, too.

  Could it be a firewall problem that keeps one internal host from reaching
port 25 while allowing another to do so?

Thanks,

Rich
