Email not making it to the mailbox. Is Postfix supposed to work out of the box? I have been pulling my hair out over this email problem for several days. Can someone please help?

I would like to update and explain that mail is only being delivered locally. Incoming Messages return No such User, Outgoing, says sent... but never received on the other end.

Howdy -- Postfix should indeed work out of the box. It sounds like you're seeing either some sort of configuration issue, or perhaps a DNS issue.
Are you using Virtualmin GPL though? If you're using Virtualmin GPL, you'd actually want to use the Forums if you're looking for free support. We monitor the Forums, along with lots of wonderful folks in the community! You can access the Forums using the Forums link at the top of the page.
Or if you'd rather use the Support tracker here, you could purchase a support incident using the "Buy" link above.
Which ever option you go with -- the following questions would be helpful in the troubleshooting process --
What is the output of "postconf -n"?
Where are you sending that email from? Is the email being sent from the server itself, to another account on the server? Or is it being sent from a remote system?
Could anything be blocking DNS lookups on your server (or where ever DNS is being hosted)? DNS lookups appear to be failing, which could occur if a firewall is blocking access to your server; or if it's behind a NAT router, and port 53 UDP isn't being forwarded to your server.
And lastly, you may want to review the email logs in /var/log/maillog or /var/log/mail.log to see if they offer any clues.

I am going to post to the Free Forums, I can't afford the paid support this week. Just for giggles, here is the information that you requested:
