I had a similar problem (I believe it was some Barracuda Spam Firewall) 
months ago.

What helped in the end was to hide the client IP on my SMTP (SM/MS). Try 
adding this (or similar) to the sendmail.mc and rebuild your sendmail.cf:

dnl #
dnl # Hide client IP
define(`confRECEIVED_HEADER',`by $j $?r with $r$. id $i; $b')dnl

Well... If it is the received header which is your problem.

Please note: Under some circumstances this *could* cause your troubles 
when trying to debug other kind of mail delivery problems; however none 
come to my mind immediately. :-)
