What's your local mail transport utility? Debian uses exim by default.
To re-run the configuration utility, run as root:
$ /usr/sbin/eximconfig
...you'll be walked through a set of menus asking how you want to
configure your mail subsystem.
You can also check to see if mail *has* been getting stashed someplace
by looking under /var/spool/exim/*. You may have been generating
outbound messages which aren't being delivered.
