 From "sendmail Cookbook" I have this example (10.2) for sendmail.mc:

 FEATURE(`no_default_msa')
 DAEMON_OPTIONS(`NAME=MSA, Port=587, Addr=127.0.0.1, M=E')
 DAEMON_OPTIONS(`NAME=MTA, Addr=127.0.0.1')
 MASQUERADE_AS(`chef.whoareyou.com')

The MASQUERAD_AS feature in this example is only used if you want replies to
mils sent to a server with a active SMTP port.

Change to /etc/mail, run make stop, make all, make install, make start
