sendmail broken in upgrade to RH9

[Blaise Canzian <blaise@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I upgraded from RH7.3 to RH9.  Berkeley mail (sendmail) used to work 
with the RH7.3 system (I could use /usr/bin/Mail to send mail) but now 
it is broken under RH9.  Mail -v shows these messages:

blaise@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Connecting to [127.0.0.1] via relay...
220 circe.nofs.navy.mil ESMTP Sendmail 8.12.8/8.12.8; Tue, 20 Jan 2004

221 2.0.0 circe.nofs.navy.mil closing connection

I have tried rebuilding the .cf file under /usr/share/sendmail-cf/cf and 
putting the new sendmail.cf in /etc/mail, then issuing "service sendmail 
restart" but the "Access denied" message persists.  Is this a permission 
problem?  (Non)existence of a file or directory?  Something else? Can 
anyone help?  Thanks.
