Problems with Sendmail AUTH and TLS

Greetings.

I desperately need help to get my sendmail configuration working again.

I followed this guide:
Unmemorable Memories » Blog Archive » Enabling SMTP-AUTH for Sendmail on Debian Linux 3.1
to enable TLS and AUTH in sendmail and now I get an error I just cannot find any information about on the great wise internet.
Code:
server:/etc/mail# make
make: *** No rule to make target `/etc/mail/tls/starttls.m4′', needed by `/etc/mail/databases'. Stop.

I can find no reference anywhere on how to solve it and when I check my Makefile it seems to me (I'm have very little knowledge about Makefiles) that everything should be OK in it.

Please please help me!

NAME
msg2smtp - a 'bridge' between MUA and GNU Anubis SYNOPSIS
msg2smtp -h HOST [-p PORT] [-e HELO_DOMAIN] [-U USERNAME] [-P PASSWORD] [-m MECHANISM] [-d] DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the msg2smtp command. msg2smtp is a program that takes a mail message on STDIN and relays it to an SMTP server. MUA (Mutt) --> msg2smtp.pl --> Anubis --> remote or local MTA This can be used whenever you want to convert a mail message on STDIN and talk to an SMTP server as output. Just like sendmail do. If you want to use this script with Mutt, add this to Mutt configuration file: set sendmail="/PATHTO/msg2smtp.pl -h localhost" If you run GNU Anubis on port 4000, you would put this line in your muttrc: set sendmail="/PATHTO/msg2smtp.pl -h localhost -p 4000" OPTIONS
A summary of options is included below: -h HOST hostname of SMTP server, often 'localhost', -p PORT port of the SMTP server, -e HELO_DOMAIN domain we use when to say helo to smtp server, -U USERNAME ESMTP auth username, -P PASSWORD ESMTP auth password, -m MECHANISM ESMTP auth mechanism - default is PLAIN, -d shows SMTP conversation and perl debugging.
