From what I can tell...DNS is working properly.  When I telnet, I get
connection refused as well.  But, the server isn't even listening on
that port...which is what is boggling my mind.  Isn't it sendmail's job
to listen on port 25?  It was working fine before I upgraded versions.
I'm going nuts.  I'm 2 steps short of looking for another mail server.

Connection refused: Is SMTP blocked? may the first host relay to the
second (see /etc/hosts.deny and hosts.allow)?

Otherwise try to telnet on SMTP port to
"localhost.netsyslab.it.rit.edu".

Perhaps you have a DNS problem.
I've had also troubles like these. It was DNS :-(

Jacco
