Thanks a lot for your reply.

After going through the FAQ,
I performed the following steps and the problem was solved:

1) started the qrunner. (A bit embarrassing, don't know how it was stopped)
2) In mm_cfg.py, added SMTPHOST=<my ip address>
3) In /etc/nsswitch.conf switched:
    hosts: files nis 
   to:
   hosts: dns files nis

and that solved all my problems.

Thanks again,
Tamara
