mx1.FreeBSD.org accepts only hosts with a valid reverse DNS entry. You
should configure sendmail (or whatever you are using) to send your mail
no directly to the target host, but to relay via sis1.snu.ac.kr
(147.46.10.36), which should be something like:

  FEATURE(`msp', `sis1.snu.ac.kr)dnl in /etc/mail/freebsd.submit.mc
and
  'make install-submit-cf' in /etc/mail/

Sorry if this doesn't work, I don't use sendmail.

Regards
    Oliver
