I believe it was as simple as going into the /etc/hostconfig file, and 
changing the Mailserver item from -no- to -yes-, and setting my 
outgoing server as localhost.

However, it has been awhile, so here's where I originally looked:

It's rather technical, but you might be able to pick out some things.
