Default [SOLVED] Deferred, mail transport unavailable

A couple of days ago the deferred queue started to grow.

Checking the /var/log/zimbra.log I found several records like this:

Code:
mail postfix/smtp[14875]: D15641A802A4: to=<info@domain.tld>, relay=none, delay=1198, delays=1198/0.02/0/0, dsn=4.4.1, status=deferred (connect to mail.server.com[127.0.0.1]: Connection refused)

mail postfix/qmgr[8273]: EE5371A80297: to=<info@domain.tld>, relay=none, delay=1200, delays=1199/0.48/0/0, dsn=4.3.0, status=deferred (mail transport unavailable)
*All domain names and public ips replaced for privacy

I know these mails origins from another box with smtp mail function sent using a standard form.

I made sure I can telnet to port 25 on localhost and send mail and I've read others posts for hours and hours and I cant locate the problem.

Code:
postconf mynetworks
mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8 10.10.10.64/26
10.10.10.64 is not the servers IP but instead the networks broadcast.

Code:
cat /etc/resolv.conf
options rotate
options timeout:3
search mail.server.com
nameserver 10.10.10.119
10.10.10.119 is the mail servers IP. I'm also running BIND and named is up and running.

Code:
cat /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1        localhost.localdomain   localhost
10.10.10.119   mail.server.com          mail
Code:
zmcontrol status
Host mail.server.com
        antispam                Running
        antivirus               Running
        ldap                    Running
        logger                  Running
        mailbox                 Running
        mta                     Running
        snmp                    Running
        stats                   Running
Also, when viewing the tooltip information in Zimbra Webinterface I see this in the deferred mail row.

Code:
Sender: name@hotmail.com
From host: localhost.localdomain
From domain: hotmail.com
From IP: 127.0.0.1
Recipients: info@domain.tld
To domain: domain.tld
Content filter: undefined
Size: 4404
Reason: connect to mail.server.com[127.0.0.1]: connection refused
Code:
hostname
mail.server.com
