The mx record for compurentjuarez.com points to www.compurentjuarez.com,
this is ok. It's only your MTA (in this case sendmail) that doesn't know
that compurentjuarez.com is a local domain and that it should accept mail
for it. Maybe you forgot to turn on 'accept mail for domain' in the
admin interface. The easiest way to fix this though, is adding
compurentjuarez.com to /etc/sendmail.cw (and you might need to map
compurentjuarez.com to www.compurentjuarez.com in your virtual usertable).

Best regards,
John
