I seem to be having problems having sendmail.5.61 deferring mail, when
mail is sent to a local host that is down. The sendmail that I am using
now (sendmail.4.0), doesn't seem to have this problem.

I tried updating the sendmail.cf file using the m4 utilities in cf/cf for
a main machine, and still it didn't work. When I use the old sendmail using 
the new sendmail.cf file, the results are the same. It defers the mail like it's
supposed to.

This is what it looks like, sending mail to cancun (who's down) using
sendmail.4.0 in verbose mode:

edmund@cancun... Connecting to cancun.qualcomm.com via ETHERNET...
Trying 129.46.4.6... Connection timed out during user open with cancun.qualcomm.com
edmund@cancun... Deferred: Host cancun.qualcomm.com is down

The mailq looks like this:

		Mail Queue (1 request)
--QID-- --Size-- -----Q-Time----- ------------Sender/Recipient------------
AA20315        1 Tue Mar  6 09:50 edmund
             (Deferred: Host cancun.qualcomm.com is down)
				  edmund@cancun

This is what senmdail.5.61 looks like in verbose mode with the same .cf file:

edmund@cancun... Connecting to cancun.qualcomm.com (tcpld)...
220 qualcom.qualcomm.com Sendmail 5.61-bcr/1.34 ready at Tue, 6 Mar 90 10:01:12 -0800
>>> HELO qualcom.qualcomm.com
553 Local configuration error, hostname not recognized as local
>>> QUIT
221 qualcom.qualcomm.com closing connection
edmund@cancun... Service unavailable: Bad file number
Saving message in /usr2/edmund/dead.letter
/usr2/edmund/dead.letter... Sent

The mailq is empty as well. Any ideas what it could be?
