sorry for bring up this thread.
I happen to encounter this setup below
There is also no mailhost set in the /etc/hosts nor DNS (using nslookup) and yet I can still send out email using mailx from that server.
There is a local sendmail daemon listening at port 25 though.
Does it means
1) when sendmail-client service is disabled, it just means that there will be no daemon to push the mclientqueue but mailx will still spawn a sendmail process as a msp and read the submit.cf
2) having no mailhost define in /etc/hosts and dns, and a sendmail daemon (MTA) listening at local port 25, can I say that the local sendmail MTA directly
resolve the next hop to the actual mailserver of the recipient / sending out without going through a relay ?

local.users
local.users(4) Kernel Interfaces Manual local.users(4)NAME
local.users - Specifies mail recipients on the local host.
DESCRIPTION
The local.users file contains a list of user names whose mail is to be delivered to the local host and whose return address is user-
name@hostname. Entries in the local.hosts file are in addition to other local users (such as root and postmaster). See sendmail.cf(4) for
a description of other local users.
You can add entries to this file if the host is configured as a simple client and either of the following is true: The user wants their
mail delivered on this machine rather than being forwarded to the mail server. You are adding aliases to the /var/adm/sendmail/aliases
file. When the host is configured as a simple client, the alias must be added to this file and the aliases file.
A simple client is defined as a host that had the mail system configured using the MailConfig application from the System Management utili-
ties or configured using the mailsetup utility's Quick Setup menu.
The format of the file is as follows: User names are separated by blanks or new lines. Multiple user name can be specified on a line.
Blank lines are ignored. A comment mark (#) ends the line.
After modifying the local.users file, you must restart the sendmail daemon to apply the changes. Use the following command: #
/sbin/init.d/sendmail restart
EXAMPLES
root postmaster rw # A comment followed by an ignored blank line.
# Another comment. mariah # Another comment.
carey # Leading blanks are acceptable.
FILES
Specifies the path name for the file.
