I have removed all entries from the Cw line and restarted sendmail on mx2.
Mail
sent to somewhere on the Internet is sent out, however when I try and send
mail to
a domain with mx2 as one of the mail servers in the DNS, sendmail responds
with:

stat=Local configuration error
NAA22594: NAA22596: DSN: Local configuration error
NOQUEUE: Null connection from root at mx2.byford.com

and then proceeds to deliver the mail locally. It seems as if it isn't using
mx1 as
the relay but itself instead?
