Well, Jesse. Chalk this up in the silly installer file. My web server and
mail server are not the same machine and I set up the transaction directory
in a place that was unique to each machine, i.e. not common. I have fixed
this and now I can see the incoming AND outgoing messages.

Thank you for you assistance. It is always helpful to have someone asking
the right questions and pointing you in the right direction. Sorry about
the silly mistake.
