Sorry Warren, I steered you wrong...
My original email said that I only had port 80 open, but I forgot that I had
to open port 25 recently in order to get my mail features working the way I
wanted with phpNuke (nice stuff).

I'm not trying to tempt anyone because any computer can be cracked but, my
mail logs look fine, my 'abuse' account has never gotten an email, and I
haven't heard from RR.  I also keep a monitor next to my bed running
'tail -f' on a few key logs (paranoia?   yes!) - I guess that's what started
this whole thing.

I'm going to do some more digging around and let you know how it goes.
