I have reproduced this bug. It exists in Feisty even if you install it
from scratch (ie not upgrade). I'm not sure what the root cause is, but
I can tell you that if you manually edit sendmail.cf to remove line 99
("Dj;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached") and then
restart it doing /etc/init.d/sendmail restart then the problem goes
away.

Each time you run sendmailconfig OR restart the machine, the problem
returns - sendmail.cf line 99 is repopulated with the error message
above. And if you run fetchmail to get your mail from your ISP then all
your mail is lost forever. This is very very bad!

This is true EVEN WHEN the erroneous messages are removed from
/etc/mail/m4/dialup.m4
