I'll pursue the missing message - I should be able to work out where it has gone. Maybe sendmail is modelled on the Irish postal service ...Probably the receiving sendmail needs to be configured to allow relaying from your source host.
It's not relaying to accept for local delivery. The receiving side needs to be configured to accept over the network (remove the 127.0.0.1 restriction from DAEMON_OPTIONS), test by a telnet to port 25 from elsewhere, and it needs to know what to accept (add the name to local-host-names if it can't look itself up in DNS and get that name). Once it is receiving over the network you can track any other issues by the entries in /var/log/maillog.
