No firewall running. I can manually send things to port 25 without an
issue. Thanks for thinking about it....

It may be firewall related. I have this line in my
/etc/sysconfig/iptables file to allow localhost
# Allow localhost full access.
-A INPUT -s 127.0.0.1/32 -d 0/0 -j ACCEPT
Add it and restart the firewall. HTH.
