Okay, I tried a traceroute and it works fine. I can connect to my port 80 (http), 110 (pop), 8080 (tomcat) all just fine. The problem occurs when I attempt to connect to port 25 -- that is when I get the "No route to host" error. However, if I SSH into the box and then do a "telnet localhost 25", it works just fine.
I'm going to take your advice though and make sure my port isn't blocked. My ISP doesn't seem to block it but perhaps it could be an IPTables configuration issue as someone else mentioned.
