Sendmail fails receiving mail since the IP changed on Redhat Server

Hi,

Since i move my Linux Redhat server on another Network with new IP address. WE'RE ABLE TO SEND MAIL OUTSIDE BUT we can not receive any incoming mail. It alway points to the old IP. I updated new IP in /etc/hosts and /etc/sysconfig/network then reboot the system. 10.117.32.20 is an old ip and server3 is the hostname and we use the same hostname on new machine.

Here is the errors that i'm getting form SMPT to my inbox:

NAME
buildd-mail - mail answer processor for buildd SYNOPSIS
buildd-mail buildd-mail-wrapper VERSION
This man page documents the packaged version of buildd-mail. This version is maintained by the buildd-tools project developers on Alioth (https://alioth.debian.org/projects/buildd-tools/). There is also a version maintained by Ryan Murray which is adapted to build daemon needs, with similar functionality. This version should be equally capable of working in a buildd setup, but has a number of enhancements aimed at making it suitable for use by end-users. DESCRIPTION
buildd-mail processes incoming mail for the buildd user. buildd-mail-wrapper was a setuid wrapper for buildd-mail, which has been removed and is no longer required. It has been kept as a symbolic link to buildd-mail for compatibility purposes, but is obsolete and will removed in a future release. SETUP
The buildd user should have a file ~/.forward with the following contents: |/usr/bin/buildd-mail-wrapper This will ensure all incoming mail will be processed using buildd-mail. FILES
/etc/buildd/buildd.conf Configuration, maintained by the system administrator. This may be used to override the defaults. ~/.builddrc User-specific configuration. ~/.forward Mail forwarding configuration. AUTHORS
