Any pointers short of trying to wade thru the *choke* sendmail
configuration file?
You might try setting sendmail up with webmin, it's much more tractable and
makes sure that things are consistent. You can install webmin with 'yum
install webmin' I think.
Webmin uses your browser to communicate on port 10000 so after installation
you can surf to <yourhostname>.<yourdomainname>.<your TLD>:10000 and log in
as root.
I don't recommend editing sendmail.cf or any other sendmail files manually.
It's a can of worms and it's easy to break sendmail that way.
I know that the sendmail.cf is a can of worms. That's why I said
"....short of trying to wade thru the *choke* sendmail configuration

In any event, the problem corrected itself with no action on my part. Do I
understand that? No!

A fair fight is the result of poor planning.
