^^^^^^^^
Is this host server? It looks to me like sendmail in the hostserver is
binding to port 25 on all available IP addresses, including the IP address
the vserver will later try to use for sendmail.
You need to bind sendmail to a specific IP address in the host server.
This problem comes up all the time on the mailing list. Perhaps IP addresses
should be somehow assignable to contexts, so that even when the host-server
binds to 0.0.0.0 it doesn't bind to all the IPs (maybe just somekind of
chbind around init in the hostserver?).
