Oh wait.  In your dialup mail queue?  That means it is not able to
lookup www.dempos.com

If you have a smarthost set ... just do this instead

DS[ip.of.smtp.server]

Or the definition of smarthost in sendmail.mc - replace www.dempos.com
with [ip.of.that.machine] ... note the [] (domain literal format)

I guess you are using my config which turns off dns lookups?  Or your
webhost's dns is a bit screwed, or maybe your ISP's dns is screwed?

<> means that it is a bounce.

If you send a mail with a fully qualified envelope sender it doesn't get
tampered with unless you have explicit rewrite rules set.

Or else, masquerading comes in when you send out mail using (say)
/bin/mail

rajesh@ho$ sendmail -v [EMAIL PROTECTED] < test.txt

if you masq as dempos.com mail will go out as [EMAIL PROTECTED] even if
the machine is called ho.dempos.com
