Thanks Jeremy L. Gaddis and all. I was suspecting all along that the problem might be with outbound port 25 blocked but I was not completely sure. To get around the problem, I have since tried other ports like cyrus2 587. In addition, I configurered SMART_HOST with (`smtp.broadband.rogers.com')dnl (I am not sure if it is correct the one - Rogers folks would'nt tell you). No luck. By the way, does anyone know of CANADIAN ISP provider that allow port-forwarding like mail, http, and the like. Your suggestions are welcome.

You may have to configure sendmail to use your ISP's mail servers as a "smart host". -- Jeremy L.
