The nobody user (PHP and such) can't send mail anymore. When I go to WHM's mail queue and attempt to manually send mail, I get an error message similar to this:
Code:
Message 1GC0O1-0004fQ-2Q is not frozen

What can I do to fix this? Thanks in advance!

WHM >> Server Configuration >> Tweak Settings
uncheck the box next to "Prevent the user "nobody" from sending out mail to remote addresses [B](PHP and CGI scripts generally run as nobody if you are not using PHPSuexec and Suexec respectively.)[/B]". Scroll down the page and click on the Save button.

Go on, have a guess
No, the error is in the log you posted. You don't have an A record setup for your hostname:

# host pinpoint.dedicatedplace.com
Host pinpoint.dedicatedplace.com not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)

:eek: I went to DNS Functions -> Add A entry for your hostname and got this message:

Found your hostname to be: pinpoint.dedicatedplace.com
Found your short hostname to be: pinpoint
Found your domain name to be: dedicatedplace.com
Found your main ip to be: 216.32.65.34
If this looks correct,
Add the entry.

...and then I got this:

The zone for the root domain dedicatedplace.com is missing, or could not be read. The ip address will be read from the webserver configuration and a new zone will be created for this subdomain. Bind reconfiguring on pinpoint using rndc
Created DNS entry for pinpoint.dedicatedplace.com
