Sendmail should send out-of-the-box to any standard SMTP server. The
only change you should have to make is if you want it to receive
from other machines. The only thing that might cause a surprise
is that it will send to the address it gets from DNS for the MX
receiver for the domain if one exists where any other thing you might
use to connect would use the DNS A record. If these are different
you might be trying to send to some unreachable relay intended for
outside senders. What does:
dig -tMX yourdomain.com
show, and can you connect to the address in the answer on port 25?
