Mail bounced back externally - internally ok.

I am unable to send mail externally. It gets refused from any mail server.
Here's my current config:
oslevel -s

********
mail -v foo@yahoo.com < /tmp/oracle.out
Warning: .cf file is out of date: sendmail AIX5.3/8.13.4 supports version 10, .cf file is version 9

Any ideas?
Even with the apparent backleveled sendmail.cf version, sendmail still works just not externally.
