Could you clarify in regards to what you want sendmail to actually use
/etc/host for?

If your intent is to re-map where mail destined for a given host/domain goes
- (ie override DNS MX records) - then /etc/hosts is not going to do what you
want. Depending on where you intend to redirect to, you'll need either
mailer table, access table entries or to configure your local sendmail to
receive for that domain to accomplish that. You might try reading further
at:

Specifically in regards to email and DNS relationships.
