I must have bumped into this before, but it still stumps me.
What would my sendmail on sage/ns1.thought.org get a
"Connection refused" from my major server, tao.thought.org?
Mail is queued in ns1.
DNS for that address is broken, so sendmail on the other machine is unable to get a valid a record to make a connection, so you get "connection refused":
5-pi% dig tao.thought.org. ; <<>> DiG 9.3.0 <<>> tao.thought.org. ;; global options: printcmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 21895 ;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 0, AUTHORITY: 1, ADDITIONAL: 0
