Are you attempting to force local mail out to a "smart host"?
If so you can make this change in your submit.cf; Change the following:
D{MTAHost}[127.0.0.1]
to
D{MTAHost}[Address of Smart Host]

Hi again,
just wanted to configure 4.2's sendmail to use my smarthost to send
status mails. I went to /usr/share/sendmail, edited cf/openbsd-
localhost
and cd/submit and created the cf files by typing m4 m4/cf.m4
cf/openbsd-localhost.m4 > localhost.cf according
to /usr/share/sendmail/README.
Now I have this in my /etc/mail/localhost.cf and submit.cf:
# "Smart" relay host (may be null)
DSmysmarthost.example.com
I also pkill -HUP'ed sendmail but mails just don't pass my
smarthost,
they are just delivered locally and I can't find anything special
in my
maillog.
Is there anything else I have to do?
Probably a silly question, but did you copy the localhost.cf to /
etc/mail?
Yes, I did :)
What I forgot to mention: Mails for localhost and myhostname are
delivered
locally, mails for other domains do pass my smarthost.
