If I change the /etc/resolv.conf to define that >host in a non-existent domain it works. For example, Most likely, the value of $w being defined internally is your fully qualified hostname, as normally happens on nameserver aware versions of sendmail. But you have rewrite rules which append '@$w.$M' or '@$w.$D' to a local address. [Or perhaps some other macro, in place of $M or $D, is used for your domain.] You will need to remove the extraneous '.$D' (or whatever), wherever it occurs.
