That's a bug in sendmail. Or at least in the wrapper script that is
now installed that checks to see if sendmail needs to be started
with the SOCKS wrapper (ugly, ugly..).
For now you can just do the following to work around it:
cd /usr/sbin
mv sendmail sendmail.socks
ln -s sendmail.real sendmail
This moves the wrapper script aside and links sendmail to the real
sendmail executable.
