Question sendmail problem with HP-UX

Hello,
I'm trying to configure sendmail on a HP-UX 11.0 to send a mail from my server to my mailbox.
I have changed the macro DS in sendmail.cf with the name of the smtp server.
When I try to send a message it is always put in the queue and never sent.
In the log, I get :
May 29 15:30:53 smmv6 sendmail[1142]: PAA01142: from=root, size=100, class=0, pri=30100, nrcpts=1, msgid=<200705291330.PAA01142@smmv6.telecom.capgemini.fr>, relay=root@localhost
May 29 15:30:53 smmv6 sendmail[1142]: PAA01142: to=aribault@capgemini.fr, delay=00:00:45, mailer=relay, stat=queued
The command sendmail -q -v gives :
Running OAA27272 (sequence 3 of 3)
aribault@capgemini.fr... capgemini.fr: Name server timeout
aribault@capgemini.fr... Transient parse error -- message queued for future delivery
All is as if it does not find the SMTP server
Note : I did exactly the same on Solaris and it works fine.
Could someone help me please ?

mailstats(8)						      System Manager's Manual						      mailstats(8)

NAME
mailstats - Displays statistics about mail traffic SYNOPSIS
mailstats [-o] [-C cffile [-f stfile] FLAGS
Do not display the name of the mailer in the output. Use cffile as the name of the sendmail "cf" file instead of /var/adm/sendmail/send- mail.cf. Use stfile as the input statistics file instead of /var/adm/sendmail/sendmail.st. DESCRIPTION
The mailstats command reads the information in the /var/adm/sendmail/sendmail.st file (or in the file specified with the -f flag), formats it, and writes it to standard output. Note also that you can change the location of the sendmail.st file by editing its pathname in the sendmail.cf file. EXAMPLES
The format of the information is shown in the following example, in which the first field (M) contains a number that indicates the position of that mailer in the sendmail.cf file, starting at 0 (zero). For example, the first mailer in the sendmail.cf file corresponds to the number 0 in the mailstats display, the second mailer corresponds to the number 1, and so on. Statistics from Thu Feb 17 11:20:01 2000 M msgsfr bytes_from msgsto bytes_to msgsrej msgsdis Mailer 1 50 77K 1 3K 0 0 local 6 43 59K 58 99K 0 0 smtp ============================================================ T 93 136K 59 102K 0 0 The fields in the report have the following meanings: Indicates the position of the mailer in the sendmail.cf file. Indicates the number of messages received by the local machine from the indicated mailer. Indicates the number of bytes in the messages received by the local machine from the indicated mailer. Indicates the number of messages sent from the local machine using the indicated mailer. Indicates the number of bytes in the messages sent from the local machine using the indicated mailer. Indicates the number of rejected messages. Indicates the number of discarded messages. Indicates the name of the mailer. If sendmail transmits mail directly to a file, such as the dead.letter file or an alias target, the message and byte counts are credited to the prog mailer, as defined in the sendmail.cf file. However, mailstats will still default to var/adm/sendmail/sendmail.st. FILES
