I think you're mistaken, David.  The log entry from maillog doesn't show
him logging in to get email.  Sendmail doesn't handle that.  For a
mailcheck, the log will say in.qpopper, not sendmail.

Ok, I accept your answer. BUT...I was not talking about checking mail, I was talking about sending without checking first.
I think the problem is the DNS or server set up. I querried www.huntingleasesonline.com and got no return. I checked huntingleasesonline.com and the first MX record was pointing huntingleasesonline.com to www.huntingleasesonline.com. There is a second MX record pointing at mx1.realtime.net and a third pointing at mx2.realtime.net 
There is an additional A record for www.huntingleaseonline.com.
I think the mail gets real confused as where to deliver to.
His own nameservers don't return an answer for MX record. It is the same with other name servers. 

The DNS is not set up correctly!!!
