I am still timing out which leads me to believe it is a true issue of timing between the servers and NOT improper configuration on the box. If i understand everything now by uncommenting the SMART_HOST define and giving it our true mail server this should relay all mail generated and coming from and coming into the server to the actual mail server yes?

No, all it does is tell your server to send outgoing mail through the smarthost. Where to send incoming mail is decided by the sending system.


I also now only have sendmail_enabl="YES" in rc.conf

sendmail_enable="YES" ^ Close.

I think your ISP is the next place to ask. They may have some sort of authentication required to smarthost through them.
