A:

several problems found and repaired:

1. DNS turned off
2. mm_cfg.py's SMTPHOST pointed to an alias only valid
on the DNS server!
3. /etc/hosts' 127.0.0.1 not pointing to localhost
4. /etc/hosts' incorrectly paired hosts' hostname with
its' IP address, nor was a valid alias paired
correctly.

amazing it ever worked in the first place.

special thanks to DAN M. for private consultation.
