Got IT and I think It will fix the Issue

Find out your ip address of your system by using "ifconfig" command
then find out your host name by using "hostname" command

#ifconfig<whatever the ip address> example
172.17.21.23
#hostname
< what ever the out will come > Example
tdm

then Just edit your /etc/hosts file
127.0.0.1 localhost tcs.com
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
172.17.21.23 tdm.tcs.com tdm TDM

----------------------------------------------
Let me explain you

this error appears to be caused in several ways, most related to DNS
name service. A few:
1. if your sending machine does not have it's own name/IPaddress in
its /etc/hosts file, it will cause the upstream target/relay host
to reject the message with something which means: "I don't know who
you are". The sending MTA sendmail then issues the error in the
maillog "...dsn=5.6.0 stat=Data Format Error". The fix for this is
to have a correct /etc/hosts; like so why i asked you to ediet the /etc/hosts file

And I am 100 % sure it will work for you

!!!BINGO!!!!!!!!

NAME
mlmmj-send - send mail to a mailinglist or similar SYNOPSIS
mlmmj-send [-L /path/to/list | -l listctrl] -m /path/to/mail [-a] [-D] [-F] [-h] [-o] [-r] [-R] [-s] [-T] [-V] -a: Don't archive the mail -D: Don't delete the mail after it's sent -F: What to use as MAIL FROM: -h: This help -l: List control variable. -L: Full path to list directory -m: Full path to mail file -o: Address to omit from distribution (normal mail only) -r: Relayhost IP address (defaults to 127.0.0.1) -R: What to use as Reply-To: header -s: Subscribers file name -T: What to use as RCPT TO: -V: Print version DESCRIPTION
This binary is used to send all kinds of mail to mlmmj managed mailinglists, but can potentially be used standalone for sending mails. The only option that is not self explanatory is the -l list control option: '1' means 'send a single mail' This is used together with -F and -T to send one mail to one recipient. '2' means 'mail to moderators' Used for sending mails to the moderators of a list. '3' means 'resend failed list mail' '4' means 'send to file with recipients' '5' means 'bounceprobe' '6' means 'single listmail to single recipient' BUGS
This manual page is very scarce documentation of the mlmmj-send binary. The reason for this is that it's really not supposed to be used by any human, but only supposed to be invoked from other mlmmj binaries. So in case more documentation is needed, please read the source. AUTHORS
This manual page was written by the following persons: Soren Boll Overgaard <boll@debian.org> (based on html2man output) Mads Martin Jorgensen <mmj@mmj.dk> mlmmj-send January 2010 mlmmj-send(1)
