Problems with my mail routines

I have been trying to setup my local machine to receive mail from comcast. The
setup uses fetchmail, procmail, and sendmail. The log file
/var/log/maillog shows:
Jun 20 09:31:02 localhost fetchmail[3155]: starting fetchmail 6.2.5 daemon
Jun 20 09:31:06 localhost fetchmail[3155]: 175 messages for r.godzilla at mail.comcast.net (860187 octets).
Jun 20 09:31:06 localhost fetchmail[3155]: reading message r.godzilla@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:1 of 175 (3975 octets)
Jun 20 09:36:06 localhost fetchmail[3155]: timeout after 300 seconds waiting for listener to respond.
Jun 20 09:36:06 localhost fetchmail[3155]: socket error while delivering to SMTP host mail.comcast.net
Jun 20 09:36:06 localhost fetchmail[3155]: Query status=2 (SOCKET)
Jun 20 09:36:06 localhost fetchmail[3155]: sleeping at Mon 20 Jun 2005 09:36:06 AM PDT
Jun 20 09:37:36 localhost fetchmail[3155]: awakened at Mon 20 Jun 2005 09:37:36 AM PDT
Jun 20 09:37:40 localhost fetchmail[3155]: 176 messages for r.godzilla at mail.comcast.net (865216 octets).
Jun 20 09:37:40 localhost fetchmail[3155]: reading message r.godzilla@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:1 of 176 (3975 octets)

This seems to indicate that I am not receiving mail at my home machine.

Could someone help me with this. Apparently there is something wrong with
the sendmailmc file but I don't see it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
