There is your error. Try this to confirm it:

# nslookup -q=mx mailtimeonline.com.
# nslookup -q=a mailtimeonline.com.

It doesn't resolve for me either. Looks like both their authoritative
nameservers are broken. Tell them to fix their servers, and also read
RFC2182 (since they have them both on the same network).

You can configure sendmail to accept mail from broken domains if you wish; I
can't remember how to do so off-hand, since I stopped using sendmail a long
time ago.

Regards,

Brian.
