MX record stopping sendmail working?

I have simple copied the namedb directory (with permissions) over to the new machine but sendmail reports.... smmc.qld.edu.au MX record points back to smmcroute.smmc.qld.edu.au The mail server (smmcroute) is the dns server (secondary dns...the isp is our primary) hmmm... any ideas? I have created a sendmail.cw file since the old system had one because mail wouldn't work without it. I notice with 4.2 the mail configs are now in /etc/mail...OK Any ideas troops? I am really stuck and our org has no mail OOPS! Is this enough info?
