I have yet to see a system that *must* use the host file for name
resolution and can not support the DNS.  

sendmail must look up MX records for correct operation.  You can't have
that without a DNS.

Install and configure DNS.

If you really, really must run without a DNS, and this is *NOT*
recommended, at least read the sendmail FAQ:
