oh.. yes, the default sendmail config..

Actually, your supposed to modify sendmail.mc
make the line look like this in sendmail.mc:
dnl # DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp,Addr=127.0.0.1, Name=MTA')dnl

and recommended if you have a busy server to increase the max connections on
the listen call by adding another line (128 is the linux kernel limit btw):

DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp,Addr=0.0.0.0, Name=MTA, Listen=128')

save sendmail.mc, then do make again.  this will modify sendmail.cf for you
.

I'm guessing you need to take out (comment out) the

O DaemonPortOptions=Port=smtp,Addr=127.0.0.1, Name=MTA

line that RedHat likes to put in their default sendmail.cf.

It makes sendmail only listen to localhost:25.
