Steve,
I have got it up and running but I had a external person help me with
it. I would like to get it up and running at home, could you please
point me in the direction of that HOW-TO page.

BTW, I forgot to say thanks to Mickey Hill for the excellent How-To
page -
couldn't have got it running without it.

You'd have to check your sendmail logs; probably, the messages are not
delivered and the sending relay gets a tempfail message.
You might want to have a cron job which cleans out the spool directory
periodically. Something like:
find /var/spool/MIMEDefang -maxdepth 1 -name 'mdefang-*-*' -type d
-mtime +5
| xargs rm -rf
should do the trick. It will delete spool directories older than 5
days,
which should be safe.
