Yesterday, I was retrieving and sending email as normal from evolution, and all of sudden mail stopped being sent. Whatever happend screwed up evolution (it hangs the splash screen now, even after I reinstalled it). 

However, it is clear that the problem is not evolution. Even when I try to send from pine (my backup to evolution), the mail is not sent. I am using postfix to send mail. 

Here is what is at the end of the mail log, reflecting the last 3 messages I attempted to send:

Any help in determing the problem greatly appreciated!
