I don't know sendmail configuration, but it seems you've only told it
to listen on the local loopback port 127.0.0.1

And netstat confirms that. You should also see something like

tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:25                0.0.0.0:*    LISTEN

You should be able to telnet to port 25 of this host from outside. You
can't (or at least I can't - I get a refusal to my connect
negotiation).

Not relevant. This only directs connects to falconfootball.org
from this machine to the given IP address. It has no effect on what's
listening on this machine for connects from the outside.
