Postfix relaying

I have sendmail config'd to relay to a MTA and thought I would try out postfix. I specified my hostname and the relayhost, postfix reload and postfix says it is trying localhost.

Code:
 Connecting to [127.0.0.1] via relay...

Inserted this into transport

Code:
*            smtp:[relay1.ourdomain.com]

Added this to main.cf

Code:
transport_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/transport

Executed a postmap /etc/postfix/transport, no dice

Code:
[root@somehost postfix]# postconf -m
static
sdbm
pcre
nis
regexp
environ
proxy
ldap
btree
unix
hash

Verified my transport.db is a hash file

Code:
transport.db: Berkeley DB (Hash, version 8, native byte-order)

Any ideas?
