I think KMail talks to the SMTP server; without sendmail. Unless you have the option to use sendmail instead... Do you know for a fact that the emails are not leaving the server? Maybe the ISP is dropping them (i.e. if your 'from' address is a verified host like yahoo, they may not accept the email from non-yahoo ip's.) Do you have a machine on the local network with an smtp server so you could try sending there?
