This morning I discovered this in the logwatch report for our external MX backup host.

I also see many entries similar to this:

From what kind of logfile are those lines? That's not Sendmail log style.
I have not seen this sort of thing before and I am wondering what it means? Googling has not provided anything useful. In case this was an incipient HDD error I rebooted with /forcefsck but on CentOS-5 one obtains no log of the rc report. I am also not entirely clear on whether or not /forcefsck actually repairs any errors. Thus it may not mean much to have done this.
The first system in question simply does not support TLS and it fails while testing.

Without knowing your Sendmail setup and what is causing the kind of log content it is hard to give you a hint. Exit state 75 is TEMPFAIL. STARTTLS works for inet08.hamilton.harte-lyne.ca.
