Jimmy,

When you say that you can't receive email for any user, do you mean that
the
mail gets to the mail server and is received, but your clients can't POP
it
off the server?  Or do you mean that email sent to any user is rejected
at
the server?  If you can send email, then port 25 is accepting email, so
the
server should be receiving mail for users.

Possibly, you will need to add a line like:
FEATURE(`access_db')dnl

To your .mc file and edit your access database to say something like:
127             RELAY
yourdomain.com  RELAY

But the answer depends on what exactly is happening to the incoming
mail.
If incoming email is accepted, but clients can't POP it off of the
server,
then the problem is something else.

-Matt
