[X Servers] Sendmail Config Question

[mac acct]

The first place I would have you look to see if you have acutally 
started sendmail (i.e. from a terminal prompt type:

ps -ax | grep sendmail

you should see at least one instance of sendmail running.  Also, you 
can telnet to port 25 if it (sendmail) is running and see the sendmail 
prompts, i.e.

telnet localhost 25

Give us the results from these and then we can move forward from there.
