another DNS problem

Hi, list!
I'm trying to configure my system as a mail server. It's f12. My ISP
provides me with a static IP address and I've binded domain name to it
(kello.ru) I have sendmail installed and can successfully send messages
from remote hosts to users on this machine (i.e. to root at kello.ru).
However it's impossible to send messages from this machine to the
outside world. Whenever I'm trying to send messages using mail command
or mail function in php-scripts the recipient receives nothing. Instead,
I see a lot of messages of this kind in var/log/maillog:
Oct 31 01:21:41 kello sendmail[23801]: o9UA6Nvm013215:
to=<saippua5 at gmail.com>, ctladdr=<root at kello.ru> (0/0), delay=11:15:18,
xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=1290432, relay=smtp.direct.ru.,
dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: 451 DNS temporary failure (#4.3.0)

Domain name registrator told me that the MX-record for this domain
points to mail.kello.ru which is just an alias for this machine.

My ISP rejects all outgoing connections to port 25 except to their own
smtp-server (smtp.direct.ru).

Here's configuration of this system.
cat /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1	localhost.localdomain	localhost.localdomain	localhost
smstools.dyndns-mail.com
