make sure kronos.honk.org is in your sendmail.cw file. Usually in
/etc/ or /etc/mail/ if there isn't one there is a Cw directive in the
sendmail.cf file. I'm not sure how it parses multiple hostnames, but I
know it's possible.
If you're still running debian, debian seems to configure it as this
from /etc/sendmail.cf:
# file containing names of hosts for which we receive email
Fw-o /etc/mail/local-host-names %[^\#]
