The daemon is bound to localhost only.

    

Yes, that would be a problem!

  

What could I be missing? The logs are clean.
      

postconf -e 'inet_interfaces = all'

service postfix restart

    

Thanks! However, even after the change and confirming that postfix is
listening properly:
[root@mercury ~]# postconf -e 'inet_interfaces = all'
[root@mercury ~]# service postfix restart
Shutting down postfix:                                     [  OK  ]
Starting postfix:                                          [  OK  ]
[root@mercury ~]# netstat -anp --tcp --udp | grep LISTEN | grep 25
