I'm afraid that I've tampered with stuff so much on this server that things have changed from when I originally posted.

The problem is that I have a ton of mail flooding the server and errors are overwritten before I can take a look at them. I wasn't even able to compare the same mail being sent in the delivery logs because by the time I stopped the logging more mail had come into the system.
