actually your question has nothing really to do with sendmail. sendmail does not let you see your mail, it transmits it from one computer to another until it finds a home. when it has found a home another rpgram, such as a pop server or imap server alloews tyou to connect with a client and view ytour mail. alternatively many unix/linux mail clients let you read mail driectly from a spool file without a pop or imap server.
Anyway, the answer is yes, you can do this. Get yourself an imap server (there are three main free ones for linux, university of washington, cyrus and courier, u/w is the easiest to setup and is the default in most distros) Then use a program called squirrelmail from www.squirrelmail.org to serve up over the web. I'm not going to post detailed instructions here, its a task, not an overly difficult one, but its well docmented in various places, call back if you want more help. Nick > OK...
