Thanks to everyone who replied with suggestions.
The common response was changing sendmail deamon startup switches, these
made no difference on my server.
Fix for me from Satish Patel of HP Services suggested using FQDN (fully
qualified domain name) for my server.
I added an entry in the /etc/hosts file;
169.254.32.32 bob.mycomp.com
And run command;
bob:root> hostname bob.mycomp.com
et voila!
bob:root> time echo hello | sendmail root
real 0m0.11s
user 0m0.01s
sys 0m0.01s
I will need to make hostname change permanent with;
bob:root> rcmgr set HOSTNAME bob.mycomp.com
Other kind responses from;
