A bit confused on this...as I mentioned earlier, this was not in the 
mm_cfg.py file, but in looking through the Defaults.py file I have the 
following.

DELIVERY_MODULE = 'SMTPDirect'
MTA = 'Manual'
SMTPHOST = 'localhost'
SMTPPORT = 0                                      # default from smtplib
SENDMAIL_CMD = '/usr/lib/sendmail'

I did notice in the Defaults.py file the following comment...

# SMTP host and port, when DELIVERY_MODULE is 'SMTPDirect'.  Make sure the
# host exists and is resolvable (i.e., if it's the default of "localhost" 
be
# sure there's a localhost entry in your /etc/hosts file!)

When I look in my /etc/hosts file...I have no entries.

So I just added...

127.0.0.1  localhost

...and restarted the network.
