Looks like you've borked your sendmail setup.  I take it you've just
upgraded to Sendmail 8.12 from 8.11 or older?  Check you've started BOTH
sendmail daemons (see the source - sendmail/SECURITY).

Worth looking at your mail log to see what's logged there.


PLEASE - keep list traffic on the list.  Email sent directly to me may be
ignored utterly.
