You can modify which port sendmail listens on in /etc/mail/sendmail.mc 
with the

DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp,......

line but this is not what you want as this changes the in bound port.  
You can add further instances of this to add listening on more ports 
simultaneously

If you are using mailertables of the type:
farrows.org     smtp:mail.farrows.org

You can add a custom service name in /etc/services

and then add an entry:

domainname.com            customservicenamehere:server.todeliverto.com

I have never tried this but it might work...
