Found out it was a firewall issue and that is open now. though my problem has gone from connection refused to:
Feb 27 08:22:04 web1 sendmail[85505]: j1MIj4DI065443: <...> delay=4+19:37:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=esmtp, pri=22920813, relay=bhost1.broadjam.net., dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Operation timed out with bhost1.broadjam.net.


is there a timeout that I can set in sendmail to set a longer wait time on this?

my flags in my rc.conf are:

sendmail_enable="YES"
sendmail_flags="-bd -q30m" # -bd is pretty mandatory.

I am in a bit of a panic because my mail queue is starting to fill up and I need to get these messages out....

thanks,

that said This is what is happening. I have a webserver
'web1.foo.com' that is not the mailserver for foo.com (that is
mail.foo.com).  /var/log/maillog has errors like:

Feb 25 07:34:09 web1 sm-mta[98913]: j1PDTdTd098790:

relay=mail.foo.com. [64.73.41.34], dsn=4.0.0,
stat=Deferred: Connection refused by mail.foo.com.

Is mail.foo.com running an MTA?

Does the setup of the MTA, the firewall, whatever else runs on
mail.foo.com allow connections from your web1.foo.com host?

how can i configure sendmail for send out mail as foo.com and NOT
web1.foo.com? is this possible?

This is probably a job of the MTA running on mail.foo.com, which should probably have the option:

        MASQUERADE_AS(`foo.com')
        MASQUERADE_DOMAIN(`foo.com')

If it doesn't already, that is.  Handling the masquerading of outgoing
email in one central place (the MTA setup of mail.foo.com) is much
preferable, since you only have to update ONE place whenever you feel
like changing the MASQUERADE_AS option.
