I am trying to debug exchange to figure out why I am not
receiving e-mail from any external sources.

Is there a way I can test to see if my exchange server is
actually receiving the messages and maybe just not
delivering them to it's internal recipient?

Telnet to port 25 from an external ip address to your Exchange server.

Do you have an MX record configured for your domain?
Do you have a firewall and/or NAT server, if you do have you got port 25
open and port forwarding enabled?
Is your recipient policy valid?

In W2k Server, where can I see what ports are open?
