异常信息如下：

解决方法：
这个问题主要是软防火墙(iptables)中邮件发送端口未对外开放。
邮件端口为25
修改iptables即可，步骤如下：
1、修改/etc/sysconfig/iptables文件，增加如下一行：
-A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 25 -j ACCEPT
2、重启防火墙，这里有两种方式重启防火墙
a) 重启后生效
开启： chkconfig iptables on
关闭： chkconfig iptables off
b) 即时生效，重启后失效
开启： service iptables start
关闭： service iptables stop
还有一个可能的原因就是：DNS未配置或配置不成功(可ping测试一下)
