Your systems domain name is not being set, so sendmail is complaining.
Type: man dnsdomainname for more info.
Further reading should include: man resolv.conf
FWIW: The proper sendmail output should look similar to...
[root@voyager etc]# sendmail -bt -d0.1 </dev/null
[...]
============ SYSTEM IDENTITY (after readcf) ============
(short domain name) $w = voyager
(canonical domain name) $j = voyager.mydomain.com
(subdomain name) $m = mydomain.com
(node name) $k = voyager
the key is the canonical domain name.
Also, your /etc/hosts file should contain an entry for the
hostname/ip address of your system. EX:
[root@voyager etc]# cat /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost.mydomain.com localhost
192.168.9.3 voyager.mydomain.com voyager
