Sendmail help on RH 9 - going out but NOT coming in..

Is there not one of us who can help here?? I'm really letting down my
pants here - not sure what's going on but if you could foreward this
link to a group you may know I would greatly appreciate it. I'm getting this error:

May 30 22:18:35 MYSERVERNAME sendmail[15551]: j4V2HWka015549:
to=<angelo.lagos@mydomainname.com>, delay=00:01:02, xdelay=00:01:00, mailer=esmtp,
pri=30329, relay=mydomainname.com. [xx.xx.xx.xx], dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred:
Connection timed out with mydomainname.com.

And, the exact configuration setup I have (in vivid detail) is here:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/redh.../msg00216.html, so
they can take a peek at it and tell me at least if the configuration
looks correct - I may know the problem (the IP address my
firewall/router is coming from may not be a static and DNS is
reporting it that way - from a Comcast address pool) - but, not being
a Sendmail guru, I don't know - right now I just need to know if mail
appears to be setup correctly....Thanks in advance.

mailstats

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

NAME

       mailstats - display mail statistics

SYNOPSIS

       mailstats [-c] [-o] [-p] [-P] [-C cffile] [-f stfile]

DESCRIPTION

       The mailstats utility displays the current mail statistics.

       First,  the  time  at which statistics started being kept is displayed, in the format specified by ctime(3).  Then, the statistics for each
       mailer are displayed on a single line, each with the following white space separated fields:

	      M 	  The mailer number.
	      msgsfr	  Number of messages from the mailer.
	      bytes_from  Kbytes from the mailer.
	      msgsto	  Number of messages to the mailer.
	      bytes_to	  Kbytes to the mailer.
	      msgsrej	  Number of messages rejected.
	      msgsdis	  Number of messages discarded.
	      msgsqur	  Number of messages quarantined.
	      Mailer	  The name of the mailer.

       After this display, a line totaling the values for all of the mailers is displayed (preceded with a ``T''),  separated  from  the  previous
       information by a line containing only equals (``='') characters.  Another line preceded with a ``C'' lists the number of TCP connections.

       The options are as follows:

       -C     Read the specified file instead of the default sendmail configuration file.

       -c     Try to use submit.cf instead of the default sendmail configuration file.

       -f     Read the specified statistics file instead of the statistics file specified in the sendmail configuration file.

       -P     Output information in program-readable mode without clearing statistics.

       -p     Output information in program-readable mode and clear statistics.

       -o     Don't display the name of the mailer in the output.

       The mailstats utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.

FILES

       /etc/mail/sendmail.cf	The default sendmail configuration file.
       /etc/mail/statistics	The default sendmail statistics file.
