have you set smarthost to point to your ISP's mailserver?
in sendmail.cf look for this directive
DS smtp.myisp.net
It may still be possible for your MTA to send more than one copy your
ISP's mailserver. I've seen this happen if the maximum number of
recipients of your ISP's mail server is reached. So let's say the maximum
is 15, sendmail will then split it to 2 mails, 1 with 15 recipients then
another with 5. No need to worry though, the TO and CC fields are not
altered.
