This is what I get:
$ host -t mx primaryblue.com
primaryblue.com mail is handled by 5 mail.primaryblue.com.
primaryblue.com mail is handled by 10 mx01.citec.net.
$ host mail.primaryblue.com
mail.primaryblue.com has address 209.212.104.70
$ telnet mail.primaryblue.com 25
Trying 209.212.104.70...
Hangs forever I guess.

$ ping mail.primaryblue.com
PING mail.primaryblue.com (209.212.104.70) from 192.168.0.202 : 56(84)

64 bytes from 209.212.104.70: icmp_seq=3 ttl=44 time=681 ms

Hangs forever I guess.
Is mail.primaryblue.com your primary mailserver?
Is 209.212.104.70 the correct IP address?
Type "lsof" -i and see if the port 25 is opened by sendmail
Do you have tcpwrappers enabled (/etc/hosts.deny: "ALL:ALL")

Restart sendmail and send the logs

Cheers,

Ralf
