Hello, Sam
Actually, the errors that I sent were all that I had at the time.
But, I attempted an experiment on this issue by sending a test mail
from steve at afolkey2.net to three outside addresses.  I did this using
mutt.  As a result, I finally got a non-delivery report (which reminds
me: the non-delivery report that I am about to quote is the first one
that I have received in the entire time that I have been trying to
figure this out):

Clarification: Insight Broadband is my internet provider, and
74.134.123.247 is the static IP address that I pay for with them.

When I get home from work later, I will do a more detailed scouring of
the mail logs.
