Thanks for that,

I've just figured out what the problem was - when I installed RT it 
added the hostname I specified to /etc/hosts. I changed it from:

127.0.0.1 myhostname.domain.com myhostname locolhost.localdomain localhost

to:
127.0.0.1 locolhost.localdomain localhost

and it fixed it instantly.
