[olug] Prying open port 25

Stock SuSE 10.0 install with Postfix.   I'm working at setting up an email 
server.

I can't telnet to my mail server on port 25 from another box within the 
network.  So far I've:
-disabled the firewall
mail:~ # rcSuSEfirewall2 status
Checking the status of SuSEfirewall2                                 unused

-found a reference to a setting in /etc/sysconfig/mail.  Set 
SMTPD_LISTEN_REMOTE="yes"

-verified postfix is running and will send local (to the server) mail

I'm still getting "Connection Refused".  Haven't spotted anything in the logs.  
Any ideas?

Dave
