What are you trying to accomplish? Sendmail is only an MTA (mail transport agent). It only transports mail between endpoints. After that you need some other program for accessing the mail. This can be a pop3 server, an imap server, or even a program (like pine or mutt) that will access the mail file directly. The University of Washington makes an imap server that also does pop3. It is much maligned, but it is very easy to setup and works adequately. In fact, it generally comes standard in most linux distributions these days and you probably only need to configure something in the inetd or xinetd configuration files. Alternatively, there are other pop3 servers out there. A quick google search should show you several.
