Sendmail failure

rgm at htt-consult.com

This is on a server that has both the firewall and selinux disabled.
I just ran a cron job as root and it is trying to mail the output to
root. /etc/aliases has the following entry:
# Person who should get root's mail
root: rgm at htt-consult.com
and the server can reach the mailserver for htt-consult.com. I get the
following in /var/log/maillog:
Nov 18 10:00:05 homebase sendmail[10786]: oAIF04Ye010786: from=root,
size=1306, class=0, nrcpts=1,
msgid=<201011181500.oAIF04Ye010786 at homebase.htt-consult.com>,
relay=root at localhost
Nov 18 10:00:05 homebase sendmail[10786]: oAIF04Ye010786: to=root,
ctladdr=root (0/0), delay=00:00:01, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay,
pri=31306, relay=[127.0.0.1] [127.0.0.1], dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred:
Connection refused by [127.0.0.1]
Where should I be looking for this problem? Does sendmail need to be
running on this server (it is not)?
