Check your /etc/mail/sendmail.mc

There is a line to be commented out to allow external connections
(and it explains it above the line)

Change
 DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp,Addr=127.0.0.1, Name=MTA')
to
 dnl DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp,Addr=127.0.0.1, Name=MTA')

then to push the change through see the comment at the top
that says the "m4" command to run
