>> Just curious, why have a separate name and aliased IP for it?

Each IP needs to be able to be resolved as www2.domain.com and
mailtest.domain.com for reasons outside the scope of this conversation.

I received a reply from a strange email address (thanks to whoever you are)
with the following solution:

- ---- %< snip ----

by default sendmail gets that name from the system hostname variable. 
you can set it differently by altering the following in your sendmail.cf


  # my official domain name
  # ... define this only if sendmail cannot automatically determine your
  # domain
  #Dj$w.Foo.COM

- ---- %< snip ----

Made the change, restarted sendmail...all is well!
