Hmmm, is it complaining about the domain, or about the server's fully
qualified name, and complaining the server's unknown?

It is complaining about the domain name, see my original post. It shows
what that masquerading stated one domain, but the sendmail also send the
real domain of the system based on the host name and this is what the
ISP mail server validates.
