An e-mail was received from host 192.168.3.100 with a from address
segfault@blueyonder.co.uk

I'm confused! Your two logfile entries above refer to the same id
h0BBoLgI022798. But yet you state that the first entry is without using the
smarthost directive. The first entry is just the from portion. Delivery has
not occurred yet. Where is the error/DSN for the actual delivery? I don't
see one. Or should this be a local delivery?

To answer your first post... If your ISP is not blocking inbound or outbound
smtp requests (except to their smtp server), then all you should have to do
is remove the SMART_HOST feature in your sendmail.mc file to make your MTA
deliver to other MTA's directly.

Based on the rest of your post, it sounds like you have taken care of:

1) configuring sendmail to allow relaying from your network address
2) configuring sendmail to accept e-mail destined for your domain as local
3) DNS lookups
