Watch out with RedHat 7.1, I have a strict firewall on my server but
iptables always shows it's empty. Try ipchains -L input.

Hi
Thanks for the suggestion. We are not using firewall rules (double checked
with iptables -L) because we are behind a hardware firewall. All testing and
usage is on the same subnet as the server. As I said earlier courier does
not even bind to port 25.
Thanks,
Scott

However, any attempt to send mail returns with a "no socket error" (OE5).
Telnetting into port 25 gives an immediate
unable to connect: connection refused. netstat does *not* list anything
listening on port 25.

Are we forgetting something? Could there be some kind of file permission
issue? We built rpms from source and installed
without problems onto Redhat 7.1.
Check your firewalling rules. RH 7.1 installs by default with all those
ports blocked. I forget where you need to go to change these rules, but
that should at least point you in the right direction.
