Fixed:

local_recipient_maps = $alias_maps unix:passwd.byname
mail_spool_directory = /var/spool/mail
mydomain = mindspring.com


Items 1,2 commented out originally.
Item 3 was originally server.mindspring.com

In my Postfix setuip, I have:

relayhost = [smtp.mindspring.com]


Note the use of the brackets - without them, Postfix finds the MXs for 
the specified domain, and sends to those MXs.  The brackets turn off the 
MX lookup, and uses the specified domain directly.
