I'm afraid I've missed the previous messages of the thread (BTW, why are
you posting this as a new thread and not as a followup to the older
stuff?  This way I'd probably be able to track the entire thread easier
on groups.google.com).

Are you running a local sendmail daemon in 'submit' mode?

: giorgos@gothmog:~$ sockstat -l4 | grep :25
: root     sendmail   412   4  tcp4   127.0.0.1:25          *:*
: giorgos@gothmog:~$ ps xa | grep -v grep | grep sendmail
:   412  ??  Ss     0:01.02 sendmail: accepting connections (sendmail)
:   418  ??  Is     0:00.08 sendmail: Queue runner@00:10:00 for /var/spool/clientmqueue (sendmail)
: giorgos@gothmog:~$

The first of these processes is sendmail started in submit mode by the
`rc.sendmail' startup script.  The relevant rc.conf options are:

: sendmail_enable="NO"
: sendmail_submit_enable="YES"
: sendmail_submit_flags="-L smtpd -bd -q30m -ODaemonPortOptions=Addr=localhost"
