Your right, I missed that statement at the top of the Sendmail.cf.  

Sendmail seems to be working, and I don't want to risk misconfiguring
it now. Since I modified the wrong file with that statement, what do you
suggest I do?

Please NEVER EVER modify your *.cf files. Modify the *.mc files and
generate
the *.cf files using your m4 interpreter. You will end up in chaos if
you to
know follow this path with sendmail :)
