I have tried 10 different emails hosted at Google, Yahoo!, GoDaddy, and some that are privately hosted, and each time I get the following errors. I have blocked sensitive information, but you will be able to see the errors.

Feb 16 17:06:50 xxxxx sendmail[31824]: o1GM6ovJ031824: [email protected], ctladdr=www-data (33/33), delay=00:00:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=30054, relay=[127.0.0.1] [127.0.0.1], dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent (o1GM6oJo031825 Message accepted for delivery)
Feb 16 16:54:19 xxxxx sendmail[31625]: o1GLsJPP031625: [email protected], ctladdr=www-data (33/33), delay=00:00:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=30097, relay=[127.0.0.1] [127.0.0.1], dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent (o1GLsJah031626 Message accepted for delivery)
Feb 17 09:05:52 xxxxx sm-mta[10620]: o1H6Z3jM005734: to=<[email protected]>, ctladdr=<[email protected]> (33/33), delay=07:30:49, xdelay=01:15:36, mailer=esmtp, pri=571331, relay=aspmx3.googlemail.com. [209.85.222.4], dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Connection timed out with aspmx3.googlemail.com.
Feb 17 10:35:23 xxxxx sm-mta[12828]: o1HEZwn8011833: to=<[email protected]>, ctladdr=<[email protected]> (33/33), delay=00:59:25, xdelay=00:12:36, mailer=esmtp, pri=300353, relay=aln-mailrelay.att.net. [12.102.252.75], dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Connection timed out with aln-mailrelay.att.net.

If you take a look, they all send, but then (HOURS later) I get an error "stat=Deferred: Connection timed out with {server}". I'm at my wits end, because I use this same setup on each of my servers, and they all work.
