New user needs help

New to the list and to postfix. I use postfix-2.2.9-10.18 on SLES10 SP1 (installed by default and have not made any alterations, up until yesterday). We have a main mail server on site and a webserver. On the webserver we have mailman installed. All mail is going to the main mailserver and we have made mailman accounts and those accounts are forwarded to postfix/mailman on the webserver. Postfix sends mail no problem. It does not appear to be recieving email correctly though. How can i tell what, if anything, is in the postfix queue? Here are some logs of mail on the webserver:

Sep 30 18:34:06 web postfix/qmgr[1477]: 9E7945FBBB: from=, size=1424, nrcpt=2 (queue active)
Sep 30 18:34:36 web postfix/smtp[1479]: connect to domain.tld[169.254.254.123]: Connection timed out (port 25)
Sep 30 18:35:06 web postfix/smtp[1479]: connect to domain.tld[169.254.1.129]: Connection timed out (port 25)
Sep 30 18:35:06 web postfix/smtp[1479]: connect to domain.tld[192.168.x.x]: Connection refused (port 25)
Sep 30 18:35:06 web postfix/smtp[1479]: 9E7945FBBB: to=, relay=none, delay=418801, status=deferred (connect to domain.tld[192.168.x.x]: Connection refused)

Notice the first couple of lines try to connect to a bogus ip address; then it trys to connect to a ip address that belongs to our domain controller. This DC does not any email services on it. The only changes to the main.cf file are: recipient_delimiter = +
and
unknown_local_recipient_reject_code = 550 and
alias_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/aliases,

            hash:/usr/local/mailman/data/aliases and
virtual_alias_maps = <your normal virtual alias files>,

        hash:/usr/local/mailman/data/virtual-mailman

I hope someone can help with this. Thanks
