Don't know about the second error, but I believe the first one is
printed by following chunk of src/contrib/sendmail/src/conf.c

======== start of the quote ========
                        sm_syslog(LOG_WARNING, NOQID,
                                  "gethostbyaddr(%.100s) failed: %d",
                                  anynet_ntoa(sa),
#if NAMED_BIND
                                  h_errno
#else /* NAMED_BIND */
                                  -1
#endif /* NAMED_BIND */
                                 );
======== end of the quote ========

netdb.h has following description for that error number in h_errno:

#define HOST_NOT_FOUND  1 /* Authoritative Answer Host not found */

So that specific error looks like a problem on your DNS.
