Okay, you, as a collective group, as fantastically helpful, very smart, and 
probably good looking; but this one was the odd ball one.

The owner of the /home/spool/mail/emailuser file was bad. The owner should 
be the same as the user-id (emailuser name), but it somehow set to 856. 
When I chown'd to the right name, all started working just fine.  I am the 
only one with access to this server ... and it changed at around 3:30AM and 
on only this one file. I know the time because my error logs in my special 
mailer program said that at around 3:30AM it started getting the 10061 errors.

I admit it, I am really lame about going to the archives - I'm going to 
book mark them as a reminder to look there, even if my answer wasn't there. 
At least this should make it there for the next person who doesn't look 
there either.

Thanks, as always,
Jale
