Yep. It's a FAQ. In /etc/mail/access add this:
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx RELAY
where xxx == ip address of hosts you want to allow relay from.
then:
makemap hash /etc/mail/access.db < /etc/mail/access
Note that you will probably want to set your sendmail daemon to relay through
your ISP's mail server and masquerade the envelope from your own as well.
