Sendmail is a bit anal. Try

sendmail -d -a sendmail.test -t listsns@roadrunner.com
-f "s-geo@usa.net"

>getauthinfo: os2user@localhost

Use the log until you convince sendmail to use the smtp mailer. Until
then you are wasting your time using iptrace. Rather than GIGO, you have
NIGO (i.e nothing in, nothing out).
