It looks to me like your sendmail daemon on airgun is getting exactly the
recipient address specified in the 554 message.  To check what's coming in
from uucico, save /bin/rmail and replace it with a shell script that prints
its args and input, e.g.:

    #!/bin/sh
    echo "$0: $*" >> /tmp/rmail.out
    while read line; do
	echo "$0: $line" >> /tmp/rmail.out
    done

Then send the mail and see who the recipient is, and what the mail header looks
like.  If that looks ok, do the same with /usr/lib/sendmail, and see what rmail
is passing off to it (uucico invokes rmail which invokes sendmail).  My guess
is that it's rmail's fault, but check it out.
