Redhat ships sendmail so that only local mail would work.. So it listens
only on the localhost interface.. First make sure you have sendmail-cf
installed.. Comment out the lines with the string DAEMON_OPTIONS from the
sendmail.mc file in /etc/mail .. Then using m4 you will need to re-create
sendmail-cf with the command:-
m4 /etc/mail/sendmail.mc > /etc/sendmail.cf

Once thats done, make sure you enter sendmail:ALL in your hosts.allow file
cause Redhat builds sendmail with tcpwrapper support and provides a
hosts.deny file that rejects all external mail..
