First, try to separate the logs from sendmail running as MTA daemon and the logs from sendmail invoked for initial submission, to see whether "Queued for Delivery" reply is received by your MTA from hotmail or by MSP from your MTA (use -L commandline switch for that).
Try to increase...
I added FEATURE(`mailertable') to my sendmail.mc and created a file /etc/mail/mailertable reading
. smtp:our_mail_server.our_domain.our.net
the dot here stands for the top-level domain (com, org, edu, etc. are it's children), compiled mailertable.db, so all our mail goes to the specified host.
>> Also, I need a detailed procedure to recompile sendmail.cf
Actually, the tarball has a set of README's that span the matter (you need <sendmail_pkg>/cf/README), so I just clarify some aspect that are not reflected there (maybe because Allman thinks it's trivial)

Try finding something like "vacation" (my home FreeBSD box has it, my office Linux server has not, no idea about availability for Solaris; but, hopefully, some workalike should exist)

The problem may be that sendmail by default applies address mapping read from /etc/mail/aliases.db or ~/.forward only to messages that are passed to local mailer. Sendmail thinks that mail for user@bigpond.net.au must be send to bigpond.net.au and passes that message to smtp mailer, which does...
When I installed sendmail 8.12.8, I did the following (among other things:-))
added strings
FEATURE (`access_db')
dnl this sets DNS-based ACL
FEATURE (`relay_hosts_only')
dnl treating records in ACL as the names of hosts, not domains
to the file <sendmail_pkg>/cf/cf/sendmail.mc and built it
cd...
The issue is as follows: Certain software sends E-mail which must then be forwarded to Email-to-SMS service. The software is buggy and refuses send the mail if the username part of the address begins with a number, so it sends the message to some_alias@our_gateway, with line "some_alias...
