Sendmail needs a valid IP <--> FQDN mapping in /etc/hosts. So make sure
you have a line like
1.2.3.4 mail.domain.tld mail
in /etc/hosts. Be aware that Sendmail takes the first dotted hostname as
its own.

I have following in my /etc/hosts
===========
# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# that require network functionality will fail.
192.168.1.2 webcomp
===========
Is that the entire contents of the file? If so, you removed/edited the
line starting 127.0.0.1 that the preceding commented lines tell you not
to remove...
