Unless you installed them someway that didn't honor the dependencies, that 
should be plenty.  Any error messages in your logs?  WHY can't it send mail?

Look at the CentOS/RHEL deployment guide and you'll see that by default they 
only accept inbound connections from 127.0.0.1 
(http://www.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/5.4/html/Deployment_Guide/s1-email-mta.html#s2-email-mta-sendmail)
 so if you haven't changed that, you'll need to.  So far as sending email goes, 
you should be able to send just fine.

TYL,
