This doesn't answer your question directly, and it's a bit late given the rest of the thread, but for future reference you might want to have a look at "qtool.pl" (included in the contrib/ directory with the Sendmail source).
It pretty much does everything you need, and has the advantage of using Sendmail's file locking method to avoid conflicts with a running sendmail queue-running process.
Something like the following will do what you need:
#!/bin/bash OLQUEUE=/var/spool/mqueue/offline QUEUE=/var/spool/mqueue qtool.pl -e '$msg{recipient} ~= "<domain>"' $OLQUEUE $QUEUE
