		Thank you very much for all your help. The typo was in the MailScanner
conf. that was causing my problem yesterday. I will double check my config
files again. A manual restart of MailScanner didn't fix my problem...
Thanks again...

Can you start it manually with "/etc/init.d/MailScanner restart" without
errors?  And with the typo, was that only in your email or did your
MailScanner.conf actually have the typo?  I built one server one day and
the next day built another and the second wouldn't work, I found
comparing all of the config files line by line was the best way to fix
the problem.  Here are the links to the reference configs from the
tutorial if you want to do a quick comparison.  This was a life saver
for me, as I get in a hurry and "fat finger" things all the time.

/etc/postfix/main.cf

/etc/postfix/master.cf
http://www.hughesjr.com/wbel/postfix/master.cf.final.txt
/etc/postfix.in/main.cf
http://www.hughesjr.com/wbel/postfix/main.cf.in.final.txt
/etc/postfix.in/master.cf
http://www.hughesjr.com/wbel/postfix/master.cf.in.final.txt
/etc/MailScanner/MailScanner.conf
http://www.hughesjr.com/wbel/postfix/MailScanner.conf.txt
/etc/squirrelmail/config.php
http://www.hughesjr.com/wbel/postfix/config.php.txt

Anything beyond that is more than I can handle.  I am still very new to
Linux email in general.
