You can check /var/spool/mqueue, and your outgoing, unsent emails should be there. You can also check /var/log/mail to see errors & progress messages from sendmail.
If you're using postfix to send mail, the paths are a little different, but the concepts are the same.

As you are using sendmail (on your local machine) your 'mail server' _is_ reachable. The Mails gets delivered to sendmail. sendmail by itself may have problems sending mail, without a network. Maybe someone with more sendmail experience could tell you more. Using an external SMTP server should solve those problems instantly, as Evo tries to reach the SMTP -- and lets the mail in Outbox until that could be done. ...guenther
