Sendmail thinks that purplepages.ca is an alias for the local host. I assume because you have it listed in sendmail.cw (since you're running sendmail 8.9.3, sendmail.cw is the default name--if you've changed it to something else then use that name wherever I've said sendmail.cw). If there's no real reason to have it in sendmail.cw, removing it should force sendmail to use the MX records in DNS which appear to point in the right direction. The most obvious reason to have it in sendmail.cw is because you think you need it so you can use virtusertable to support your virtual web servers. You don't. If however you think you'd like to keep virtusertable (if that's what's happening here), then for each domain put a final entry that says @purplepages.ca %1@mail.purplepages.ca which should forward the mail to the same username at mail.purplepages.ca. (And don't forget to remake virtusertable.db!) If you're not using the virtusertable, then provide some details on what you're doing and you might get something better than guesswork!
