553 5.1.8 <[email protected]>... Domain of sender address [email protected] does not exist
------ This is a copy of the message, including all the headers. ------
I installed sendmail server in 192.168.1.145. the domain name of .145 is inhmail.walkingtree.in
i opened port 25 in firewall in system and router as well .
Mail receiving and sending in 192.168.1.0/24 is working fine with @inhmail.walkingtree.in.
Please help that how sendmail can receive mails from external email servers.

Answer
You sendmail thinks that envelope sender's domain walkingtree.in does not exist (no MX, A, AAAA DNS records). It refuses to accept messages with such envelope sender because there will be no way to send back (eventual) bounce messages (reports about email delivery problems).
You may use nslookup (or dig) to check if the server sees the DNS records:
nslookup -type=mx walkingtree.in
dig walkingtree.in MX
IF YOU USE SENDMAIL (not postfix) then as root execute the command below to locate the problem:
echo "check_mail [email protected]" | sendmail -d8.20 -bt
In case of "Undefined ruleset check_mail" error try:
echo "checkmail [email protected]" | sendmail -d8.20 -bt
-d8.20 turns on tracking of DNS queries
checkmail - equivalent of check_mail used with FEATURE(delay_checks)
