there are some settings in redhat that you have to change in order for it to listen on your IP, check out http://www.sendmail.org/faq/section5.html#5.3.1.3
this should get you what you want to know.
let me know how you go.

  Subject: Sendmail listening on localhost.localdomain


  I have sendmail running on Redhat 7.3 but it seems that it only listens on localhost.locadomain.
  netstat -a | grep smtp
  tcp        0      0 localhost.localdom:smtp *:*                    LISTEN

  So I can do "telnet localhost 25"
   
  but not "telnet [ip address] 25"
   
  Any ideas to make sendmail to listen on my ip?
