Looks like the sendmail service isn’t running. Maybe it not starting because of a syntax errors?

I’d probably not use send mail in the first place. Postfix is the default, recommended MTA in CentOS 7, and its less likely to have mysterious syntax errors and easier to understand configuration syntax. (Sendmail’s config language is so complex that most people just use M4 and “compile” it into the sendmail.cf)
