It would appear that the message was dropped on the localhost. See where it
says relay=....
Here's an example of what a remote send looks like:
Feb 13 16:11:15 pc70 sendmail[3726]: QAA03723: [EMAIL PROTECTED], ctladdr=bshelton
(500/1001), delay=00:00:01, xdelay=00:00:01, mailer=esmtp, relay=ole.net.
[207.252.176.1], stat=Sent (ok 918940275 qp 18539)
Relay doesn't say localhost and there's a "stat" indicating that it was
successfully sent to the remote SMTP server.
