Is sendmail running? On RHEL 3/4 systems, sendmail had to be running in order to send/receive mail...even locally. He mentioned he stopped a lot of services on the box...
(Okay, technically, only the sm-client had to be running for local deliveries I think)

Hrm - well, that shoots my theory down.
What happens when you try to send mail to your "real" e-mail account? What shows up in the log files (/var/log/maillog)?
Do something like this:
mail jboyce@(protected) -s "test message" < /etc/hosts
This should mail you the contents of /etc/hosts with a subject "test message." Do this then look in /var/log/maillog to see if there are any errors.
Also try running mailq as root to see if there are any messages hung up in queue.
