Note: I have not used sendmail in years, so I'm going off of memory.

Multiple things:

1. The files that "control" sendmail are `hostname`.mc and
`hostname`.submit.mc.  The freebsd.mc and freebsd.submit.mc are "stock"
examples.

I assume you're already familiar with the need to run "make" in
/etc/mail.

2. `hostname`.mc controls options/features for the daemon -- i.e. the
thing that is listening on TCP ports.  `hostname`.submit.mc is for
outbound mail.  You're wanting sendmail to listen on TCP port 587, which
is what's used by SMTP clients (ex. Eudora, Thunderbird, etc.) trying to
send mail to sendmail (rather than the classic model/method of using
port 25).

3. What you need to add is here:

Good luck.
