Just to update - I had changed the Allow Relay on the CHGSMTPA command
to *LIST.  But my problem still remained.  Note that I didn't add
anything to the 'list'.

Rick had suggested that I had a "stuck" e-mail and I cleared all e-mail
off the system per a process that IBM had suggested to him.  Problem
still remained - guess I didn't have any stuck e-mail

After speaking with IBM, was told that I needed to change the Allow
Relay to be *NONE - apparently specifying *LIST without anything in the
'list' don't work - duh.

Anyway, it appears that my problem has been solved as the system is back
under control.  IBM says that spammers were using the system to relay
their crap.

Make sure someone is not using your AS/400 as a open relay on the
command
CHGSMTPA  parm    Allow relayed mail  ALWRLY     
should be *NONE or *LIST
