More on /etc/aliases forwarding wrong user

Well, so far the only progress I have made is determining that I 
somehow opened up my mailserver as an open relay....ugh! That's solved 
now, but still no movement on this issue as to forwarding.

The plot thickens here, because it seems that sendmail thinks it 
processing mail for both of my domains. (which it isn't. I have two 
separate mail servers) Anyway, when I sent an email from a user on my 
RedHat box to a user at my other domain, I get an undeliverable 
message. The most intriguing part of which is:

    ----- Transcript of session follows -----
... while talking to [127.0.0.1]:

My RedHat machine thinks that my other domain is hosted at 127.0.0.1. 
This is not the case, and is not a DNS issue, b/c everything works fine 
at my other domain. I double checked /etc/hosts and there is no errant 
entry there, and a quick grep of the sendmail.cf file reveals no 
otherdomain.dom entries there. Any ideas here?

To recap, any mail forwarded to [email protected] is actually 
delivered to [email protected]. If I send mail from the 
RedHat machine to a [email protected] and that username does not 
exist on the redhat machine, the mail fails to be delivered. If the 
username does exist locally, then it is delivered to the redhat 
machine, NOT the other domain's mailserver. Obviously I screwed 
somethign up here by accidentally keying my other domain name on the 
redhat machine. however, I have no idea where that would be....

Thank you for any info, or tips as to where I should look for help...
