I logged into the smtp service using telnet. using: telnet localhost 25 -- everything worked fine. using: telnet xyz.com 25 -- I got 550 5.0.0 Access denied when I did anything. The problem -- I hadn't removed the /etc/hosts.allow & /etc/hosts.deny files. Once I did it happily talked to any host that wanted to send me mail. Duh !!
