Sent a test message. Here's what's in maillog:
Mar 14 11:00:28 mailserver sendmail[25108]: n2EF0LTt025094: to=<ned@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>, ctladdr=<jep@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> (503/503), delay=00:00:07, xdelay=00:00:03, mailer=relay, pri=120391, relay=smtp-server.carolina.rr.com. [75.180.132.33], dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent (Message received: 20090314134107.MZQS7442.cdptpa-omta01.mail.rr.com@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx)

Been several minutes and no bounce. Guess that's a good thing.

That would stink, but appears to be the case. 

Thanks,
