See if you can do it manually: $ telnet another.external.machine smtp If you get "connection refused" then either there's a firewall rule at either your end or at another.external.machine preventing this connection, or there is no mail server running at another.external.machine. If a connection is opened and the server displays its greeting banner, you can enter "QUIT" to terminate the session. Then try "sendmail -qRexternal.machine" to try to poke sendmail into delivering the queued mail. If that doesn't work and you believe SELInux to be the issue, look near the end of /var/log/audit/audit.log if it exists or /var/log/messages otherwise for any audit messages that may provide clues.
