Hi there,
You should ensure a sendmail daemon process is running: 'ps -ef | grep sendmail'
Then, you should check if there is a process (hopefully sendmail) listening on that port:
'lsof -itcp:25' or 'netstat -at | grep LIST' to list all listening tcp port ...
If all the check looks good, try telneting to port 25 from localhost: 'telnet 127.0.0.1 25' and if it works flush all the iptables rulez: 'iptables -F'
