Hi,

    You have to tell sendmail via DNS and sendmail.cw file which domains it
will receive mail, it seems that you asign an MX record for your computer
but not asigned the domain or host to the sendmail.cw file.

BTW If you can send more info about the sunnet.co.za domain in your DNS
files and your sendmail.cw file, and also tell us if you are administering
this domain in your server, all the info you can give us its simpler to
trace your problem.

Ales
