problems with postfix for RH 8.0


I had sendmail working fine on my RH7.3 box, but then i migrated to RH8.0 (on a different machine) and wanted the new mailserver to handle mail for both of the domains (the old and the new), couldnt get it running, so i switched to postfix, which i ended up getting configured fine.

so a month later (under postfix), now no user other than root can send mail, in pine it just comes up with the "sending 0%" and camps there forever for internal or external mail. and root cant recieve mail but the other user accounts can. root doesnt even recieve log msgs from cron or anything else for that matter.

i havent done anything weird with the postfix main.cf (dont think theres anything weird you can do) other than set the mydestination, myhostname, mydomain and such.

any ideas?

thanks in advance
