Could be a number of things -- maybe even TLS? I am currently on 8.14.8 which
is the latest. I have a pretty complex setup including milters galore with zero
problems. Have you considered updating to the latest release? That might
help.

You can also try sending an email via debug in sendmail to MyProvider.com and
see if there is something going on or perhaps provide us with a few more
details..
