I should have looked more closely, when you posted your config.  You
have "[sendmail]", instead of "[sendemail]".  You're missing the "e"
on "email".  What made me re-look is the line right after "OK. Log
says:".

You should have seen:
OK. Log says:
Server: smtp.gmail.com

Not:
OK. Log says:
Sendmail: /usr/sbin/sendmail -i xenoterracide@xxxxxxxxx
