1) All sendmail attempts should be logged in /var/log/maillog. Something should be in there to point you in the right direction. 2) What does the output of "mailq" and "mailq -Ac" look like? 3) When you telnet to your system, where are you telnetting from? By default, the redhat supplied access file should allow relaying from e-mail sumitted locally. i.e. localhost. 4) I don't run mailman at this end, but I would think mailman should be submitting its outbound through localhost.
