Default Connection Refused in Qmail Issue.

Hello,

If i send an email using the mail command it shows up in my mailbox
which is what I want. However if I go jump on my Windows box and use a
mail client there and try to send to my linux machine an email I get the
following error in my mailq log

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

230921E79F 1331 Fri Feb 6 09:29:40 ryan@theknopps.com
(connect to localhost[127.0.0.1]: Connection refused)
ryan@theknopps.com

8A4701ED95 361 Fri Feb 6 09:33:43 ryan@aisp.com
(connect to localhost[127.0.0.1]: Connection refused)
ryan@thedomain.com

(connect to localhost[127.0.0.1]: Connection refused)
ryan@thedomain.com
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm using OE in windows for the testing purposes (i usually use
thunderbird) and the settings I used for my SMTP settings for OE are
Name: Ryan
Email: ryan@thedomain.com
outgoing email: 192.168.0.101
port: 25

OE created the 230921E79F and B848F1ED5B failed email above. The ip
address that my windows machine is on is 192.168.0.106.
I also tried it using putty and the SMTP protocol and this is what I did

---------------------------------------------------
220 linux.theknopps.com ESMTP Postfix
HELO
501 Syntax: HELO hostname
MAIL FROM:ryan@aisp.com
250 Ok
RCPT TO:ryan@theknopps.com
250 Ok
DATA
354
this is a test.
..
250 Ok: queued as 8A4701ED95
-----------------------------------------------------

and as you see this showed up in my mailq log as a connection refused
error.
Here's my postconf - n

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
linux:/home/ryan # postconf -n
command_directory = /usr/sbin
config_directory = /etc/postfix
daemon_directory = /usr/lib/postfix
debug_peer_level = 2
disable_dns_lookups = yes
inet_interfaces = all
mail_owner = postfix
mailq_path = /usr/bin/mailq
manpage_directory = /usr/share/man
mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, $mydomain,
mail.$mydomain, www.$mydomain, ftp.$mydomain
mydomain = theknopps.com
myhostname = linux.theknopps.com
mynetworks = 192.168.0.0/28, 127.0.0.0/8
myorigin = $mydomain
newaliases_path = /usr/bin/newaliases
queue_directory = /var/spool/postfix
readme_directory = /usr/share/doc/packages/postfix/README_FILES
sample_directory = /usr/share/doc/packages/postfix/samples
sendmail_path = /usr/sbin/sendmail
setgid_group = maildrop
unknown_local_recipient_reject_code = 450
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

>> mynetworks = 192.168.0.0/28, 127.0.0.0/8

Shouldn't this line solve this problem? I'm sending this email from ip
192.168.0.101 (Windows Box). I only want the smtp to work in my local
network at 192.168.0.*.

Any suggestions? Thanks a lot for you help.
