Yes, my usual mantra:  "When a previously-working system starts misbehaving,
and you (really, honestly!) haven't changed anything, suspect a network
problem."  Look for a DNSRBL host that's died, a datbase connection that's
acting up, or something similar.

Of course, if you *have* changed something on your setup...
