Another problem you may have: Determine if remote client access is disabled. If the sendmail daemon process – sendmail -bd – is running with the “-C /etc/mail/local.cf” parameter, then remote client access is disabled.

ps -ef | grep sendmail

Set sendmail’s config/local_only property to false
svcs sendmail
STATE STIME FMRI
online 10:51:43 svc:/network/smtp:sendmail

svccfg -s /network/smtp:sendmail
svc:/network/smtp:sendmail> listprop config/local_only
config/local_only boolean true
svc:/network/smtp:sendmail> setprop config/local_only=false
svc:/network/smtp:sendmail> listprop config/local_only
config/local_only boolean false
svc:/network/smtp:sendmail> exit

This will not work if remote client access is explicitly disabled in sendmail.cf.
Restart sendmail
svcadm restart /network/smtp:sendmail
ps -ef | grep sendmail

LEARN ABOUT DEBIAN

sendmailconfig

SENDMAILCONFIG(8)					      System Manager's Manual						 SENDMAILCONFIG(8)

NAME

       sendmailconfig - configure sendmail for Debian systems

SYNOPSIS

       sendmailconfig [--no-reload]

DESCRIPTION

       sendmailconfig is used to simplify the configuration of sendmail(8) for use on Debian systems.

       In  the	simplest  case,  you  may  run	this program to (re)configure sendmail for your Debian system at any time. It will modify the file
       /etc/mail/sendmail.mc in order to create a working sendmail configuration which will be written to the file /etc/mail/sendmail.cf.

       For advanced configurations, you can modify the sendmail.mc file before generating sendmail.cf. Future invokations of  sendmailconfig  will
       preserve these changes provided they are made at the end of the file.

       Normally  sendmailconfig  will  ask  if	you want to reload sendmail after making changes to its configuration. The --no-reload option will
       avoid this question.

FILES

       /etc/mail/sendmail.mc
	      sendmail m4 input to generate sendmail.cf

       /etc/mail/sendmail.cf
	      actual sendmail configuration file

       /etc/mail/sendmail.cw
	      names for which we will accept mail in the standard configuration

       /etc/mail/sendmail.ct
	      names of trusted users in the standard configuration
