Check that mail.webgeek.com is in your /etc/sendmail.cw file. If it isn't
try adding it in on a separate line at the end of the file.
Then restart sendmail:
/etc/rc.d/init.d/sendmail restart

The DNS for the domain looks like this:

Dig webgeek.com@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (209.73.15.199) ...

  ns5.zoneedit.com A (Address) 209.73.15.199
  mail.webgeek.com A (Address) 64.39.237.115

This looks OK to me, unless I'm missing something. So I think the problem
is most likely to be in either /etc/sendmail.cw or /etc/virtusertable.

Hope that helps,
