I see ports 25 (SMTP), 110 (POP), 143 (IMAP), and 587 (Submission) all enabled and listening for connections on the domain muzictalk.com.
What problem is it you're seeing exactly? What are you trying, and what errors do you get?
And, do you see any errors in the mail log, /var/log/maillog?

I don't really see anything unusual in your logs.
Can you describe what exactly it is you're trying to do, and the exact error/problem that occurs when you do that?

Ok, then what do I use to commect to the SMTP Server?
SMTP: port(s) SMTP: server name (ie mail.domain.com or smtp.domain.com SMTP: password do I use SSL
Outlook error message:
Thanks

The exact settings to use depend on several things; for example, in some cases, ISP's block certain ports.
When sending an outgoing email, you may want to try configuring it to use TLS/SSL on port 587, rather than using port 25.

OK, I'll check some more. Thanks for your assistance
