Sendmail creates logs when it does things. See if you spot anything interesting in wherever that is set up to log to; a good bet might be /var/log/sendmail.log or mail.log. Also check with mailq -- the message is probably still on hold in the queue, quite likely with an explanation of why (run with -v to see the full diagnostic, if I recall correctly).
