Unable to send mail from non-global zone
TLDR; non-global-zone has same configuration files (sendmail.cf) as global-zone but still unable to send mail out using mailx

I have a S11.3 system that has a non-global-zone which uses the exact same sendmail.cf configurations as the global but, unable to send mail out from it.
Apparently there's a 050 501 5.5.4 Invalid domain name error that mailx's output provided during the end of the execution.
When doing a nslookup on the hostname of the box, system returns this;

Code:
;; Got SERVFAIL reply from hiddenIP, trying next server 
;; Got SERVFAIL reply from hiddenIP, trying next server

...

Any suggestions ?

Also forgot to provide the ending of mailx output;

.... ( general foobar from mailx )..
Code:
050 >>> EHLO <<hidden hostname>>. 
050 501 5.5.4 Invalid domain name 
050 >>> HELO <<hidden hostname>>. 
050 501 5.5.4 Invalid domain name
