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"
