If the remote MTA accepted the mail for delivery, then the local Sendmail is out of responsibility. Maybe the other mail system treated your test mail to be spam (due to some misconfiguration). > I tried copying the sendmail configuratio I had been using from > backup, but when i tried sending a message, I got: > > host name lookup failure. Please provide complete log messages. Did the name lookup of the recipient MTA fail or the one of your own Sendmail? > I have tried adding in the smarthost information into my sendmail.mc > file and recompiling everything and restartingthe service, but no > change. > > Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

That is a misconception. a) Of course you can use Postfix or Exim as MTA together with Squirrelmail. They have a sendmail command for compatibility. b) You should not use "sendmail" in Squirrelmail's configuration, but "SMTP" - because of SELinux.
