Power mailx, why all my mail goes to mailq?

Hi,
I sending mail like this:
mailx -s "test" -r "from@me.com" to@you.com

and I have update the /etc/mail/sendmail.cf with:

DSsmtp-relay-nx-vip.xxx.yyy.com (this path is working on the old server)

But all I mail goes to queue.

What do I miss here?

Regards
Mehrdad
