Matt,

Only thing I can think of would have been in the forward domain adding 127.0.0.1 there, which probably should be removed as it is also a local domain as localhost.localdomain also the smtp port option states:
Name=MTA (is that correct?).

STeve

ps. thus I will remove 127.0.0.1 from forward domains but it was doing the below errors before I put it there.

OK - next line shows you have a process listening on all interfaces

>tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:25              0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN

But this line is interesting:

>tcp        0      1 192.168.1.21:1260       127.0.0.1:25            SYN_SENT

I would have expected to so a connection 127.0.0.1 <-> 127.0.0.1 not
from its other address

Have you modified your sendmail configs recently?
