what is the contents of your /etc/mail/local-host-names
on host.foo.com and mail.foo.com and foo.com

what is the contents of the optional /etc/mail/access and
/etc/mail/virtusertable

any machine that receives email should be an "A" record vs a cname
in your dns config files ( esp if it cannot deliver/receive the mail
properly )

you should be using sendmail-8.13.1 ... to avoid silly avoidable problems
