Hmmm.  Then this is probably the problem...

If the remote server is an Exchange system, I am not sure if using it as
an MSP in `submit.mc' is supposed to work.

Try resetting the `msp' value in `submit.mc' to:

    FEATURE(`msp', `[127.0.0.1]')dnl

and set `SMART_HOST' in `firewall-1.xxx.com.mc' (not in the
`firewall-1.xxx.com.submit.mc' file):

    define(`SMART_HOST', `smtp.xxx.com')

Then you should enable the `submit' and `msp_queue' sendmail processes
in `/etc/rc.conf' too:

    sendmail_enable="NO"
    sendmail_outbound_enable="NO"
    sendmail_submit_enable="YES"
    sendmail_msp_queue_enable="YES"
