I don't want to open up port 25 and it seems a bit silly anyway to
send mail on such a long round trip. Is there any way I can tell
sendmail that home.isbd.net is localhost (or 192.168.1.1)? I have an
entry for home.isbd.net in my /etc/hosts file which is:-
192.168.1.1 home home.isbd.net
Try adding 127.0.0.1 as home.isbd.net in the hosts file.
There's a big comment in /etc/hosts saying that breaks things.
Here's my hosts file. So far nothing is broken and all network based
services that I need run perfectly. Can't say about IRC or talk, simply
because I never use them. And no big comment advising not to do it there
either.

127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
127.0.0.1 marvin
