You MUST put the SMTP_MAILER_FLAGS option before you define the mailer option.
i.e it must sit before the "MAILER(smtp)dnl" line. If you look at your
sendmail.cf file, you will find the "ea" flags will not be compiled in and the
SMTP mailer will therefore not be recognised as "expensive" (See the bat book
page 528; last paragraphs of section 30.4.5.1)
In your m4 file, the flags will be ignored and sendmail will attempt to
deliver all messages immediately rather than queue them. This is therefore an
"immediate delivery" problem rather than a DNS problem.
