Have you tried using the "sendmailconfig" included in the Debian sendmail package? It generates configuration files for several very common situations. Another option could be to use a different Mail Transfer Agent (MTA). While sendmail is used very often and is quite powerful, it is also notoriously difficult to configure. Most (all?) of the other Debian MTA packages (e.g. exim, smail) have a similar script and have configuration files that are usually considered easier to write or change.
