What configuration options have you got set for not delivering at busy

It doesn't create a msglog file until it is starting to do a delivery;
thereafter it should write *something* to it. An empty message log is a
bit worrying... Have you got any core dumps lurking?

Aha! For local domains you should have a local-part in the retry
information. You need to have
*@*.iafrica.com * F,5m,30s; F,4h,5m; G,16h,30m,1.5; F,10d,8h
Hmm. I'd better check that that second "*" is OK, but I'm afraid I've
got to go to lunch now; then there's a meeting, then I have to pack up
my office to move it tomorrow. I'll try to get get back to you asap.
