I know very little about this, but in my little niche, I found I had to
update sendmail.cf to not be restricted to localhost.
In /etc/sendmail, I updated sendmail.mc:
# pwd
/etc/mail
# diff sendmail.mc.bak sendmail.mc
105c105
< DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp,Addr=127.0.0.1, Name=MTA')dnl
---
> dnl DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp,Addr=127.0.0.1, Name=MTA')dnl
#
Then ran
make -C /etc/mail
as shown in the .mc and .cf files.
This allowed intranet mail to work here.
