Look at /etc/mail/sendmail.mc and you should find:
dnl This changes sendmail to only listen on the loopback device
127.0.0.1
dnl and not on any other network devices. Comment this out if you want
dnl to accept email over the network.
DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp,Addr=127.0.0.1, Name=MTA')

So, comment out that line, and remake the sendmail.cf
# m4 /etc/mail/sendmail.mc > /etc/sendmail.cf
